Home / Awards & medals / Christiaan Huygens Medal / 2026 / Vijay Prasad Dimri
His pioneering work in signal processing and fractals in geosciences has paved the way for new methods of acquiring geopotential field data, enabling more accurate detection of geophysical anomalies. He has proposed innovative data processing techniques to improve the delineation of the geophysical anomalies, which are summarised in his numerous books, such as 'Deconvolution and Inverse Theory'.
