A groundbreaking synthesis of science, technology, and geopolitics, this book delivers an unprecedented analysis of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD). Leveraging advanced quantum computing, radar interferometry, and remote sensing—including Sentinel-1, ICEYE, and TerraSAR-X—this work reveals hidden structural
vulnerabilities in GERD and models catastrophic breach scenarios. Featuring the original Marghany Hologram-TomoSAR algorithm and new quantum phase unwrapping
methods, it offers critical insights into environmental, engineering, and military dimensions. From sediment saturation to seismic risk, and from biblical prophecy to regional diplomacy, this book challenges conventional narratives and opens new frontiers in monitoring, forecasting, and strategic response to GERD's evolving dynamics.

Professor Dr. Maged Marghany, the visionary behind the innovative theory titled “Quantized Marghany’s Front”, is the Director at Safanad Information Technology in Malaysia. Dr. Marghany has been listed among the top 2% of scientists for five consecutive years—2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 by Stanford University. Furthermore, his profound impact is reflected in the recognition of two of his books, acknowledged as being among the best genetic algorithm books of all time. Dr. Marghany's ongoing commitment continues to shape the landscape of scientific thought and geoinformation expertise.

Additionally, Dr. Maged Marghany has achieved the remarkable distinction of being ranked first among oil spill scientists in a global list in the last fifty years. The list spanning the last fifty years was compiled by the prestigious Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana in Brazil. He is also a distinguished visiting professor at Malikussaleh University and other universities in Indonesia.

In previous roles, Dr. Marghany has directed some institutions in Malaysia. His educational journey includes a post-doctoral degree in radar remote sensing, a PhD in environmental remote sensing, and a Master of Science in physical oceanography. With over 250 papers and influential books like “Advanced Remote Sensing Technology for Tsunami Modeling and Forecasting”, Dr. Marghany's significant contributions shape global perspectives in remote sensing, geospatial applications, and environmental science.
