My research focuses on the application of GIS and Remote Sensing technology to various archaeological, environmental and sustainable development topics. Current research involves the development of web GIS systems for the collection, exploration, analysis and dissemination of scientific data. Additional information on my teaching, research, papers and presentations can be found on my personal website.
