Ainn Zamzuri is currently a PhD student at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), Skudai, Malaysia. Her research focuses on the integration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) with the Land Administration Domain Model (LADM) in the context of Sarawak, demonstrating a strong dedication to advancing the field of geoinformatics and land administration. Ainn's academic journey began at UTM, where she earned her Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Geoinformatics. She graduated with her Bachelor's degree in 2019, during which she conducted significant research on the application of GIS technologies. Her commitment to excellence and her passion for geoinformatics continued to shine during her postgraduate studies. She graduated with her Master's degree in 2022, focusing on conceptual modelling in geospatial data management. Throughout her academic career, Ainn has consistently demonstrated a drive to expand her knowledge and skills, culminating in her current doctoral research. She has published several papers in conferences and journals, contributing valuable insights and advancements in geoinformatics and land administration. Her work aims to address significant challenges in land administration and develop innovative solutions that leverage cutting-edge technologies.
