简介

I specialize in the area of applied environmental science and geospatial analysis. My research centers on the exploitation of GISc methods within the context of Remote Sensing, Geospatial Modeling, Geographic Information Systems and Applied Artificial Intelligence. Currently, my research agenda focuses on the application of Remote Sensing and GIS modeling to problems that fall within the topical areas of land resource analysis/sustainability, environmental monitoring/characterization, and environmental decision making. Within this systematic specialization my research and teaching centers on improving our understanding of the relationships between land development and resource use and the examination of human impact on the patterns and processes that characterize the physical environment. In my career, I have served as Executive Director of the OhioView Consortium for Remote Sensing Research and Education, President of the Eastern Great Lakes Region, American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing and the Executive Board of Directors of the Applied Geography Conferences.
