I head up the GIS team at the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. I’m based at our HQ in Sandy and also at the David Attenborough Building. My interests are in how we can use Earth Observation to monitor key sites for biodiversity. I am also interested in the field of machine learning in particular computer vision and all things spatial.
