My primary research interests are in SAR remote sens- ing, land cover change mapping, and large dataset analysis. As I work with SAR imagery over large areas and long time periods, I also develop tools for process- ing and analysing these datasets.
My activities within the Φ-lab are a continuation of previous research into burned area detection, apply- ing Deep Learning methods to support this, and the generation of SAR datasets and applications for other purposes, including VR. I also support training and SAR processing among colleagues and visitors to the Φ-lab.
I began my remote sensing career with a MSc at University College Cork, Ireland where I looked at subsidence monitoring in a peat bog using an Envisat-ASAR time series. I then completed a PhD in the Centre for Land- scape and Climate Research at the University of Leicester, studying forest change in the Congo Basin and the discrimination of forest and flooded forest, using L-band SAR.
