Hi there

My expertise lies in remote sensing, although in recent years this has expanded to any project using spatial data and geographical information science…

“A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one”

I teach, develop courses, conduct research and apply / maintain a variety of student funding and accreditation. All of which you’ll find on this site! R is my language of choice, but I also use PostGIS and Google Earth Engine.

During my academic career I’ve been fortunate to study, present at conferences and conduct fieldwork across the world. See where using this map and come ask me about it!
