Team

Expertise in remote sensing, earth observation, peatland ecology, botany, geospatial analysis and artistic landscape visualisation.

The team works closely with external partners across research initiatives including SmartBog, Terrain-AI, MINE, Agri-SOC, CarboSol, BOGLAND and AUGER. This network includes specialists in SAR remote sensing, peatland research, carbon sequestration and geospatial science. The approach combines earth observation with ecological expertise and art photography, to show landscape degradation to a broad audience.
