Current

  • Finished writing bash scripts for automated LiDAR processing including region detection and division into 1km tiles for processing and output.
  • Finished semi-automated/automated Mask production for LiDAR data.
  • Added to the LiDAR micro-tutorial after my experiences of using it and the LiDAR modules in GRASS GIS.


Present


Past

  • Work experience: I worked at the Defence Geographic Centre until the end of 2012 where I worked as a geospatial research analyst and then a web developer, working on internal web services and refining a proposed metadata profile based on ISO 19139 / INSPIRE / Gemini for the MoD as a whole.
  • GIS Studies: I graduated from the University of Manchester in 2009 with MSc GIScience.
  • My postgraduate dissertation involved the processing of a high resolution LiDAR dataset in GRASS GIS, validated with differential GPS surveys.
  • Archaeology: I gained an HND and BA in Archaeology. I worked for a few different archaeological contractors before settling with the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) in 2001. I remained with ULAS until 2008, after having completed the direction of two large-scale urban projects, before moving on to broaden my horizons in geoinformatics.
