I am an archaeologist specialising in aerial and ground-based landscape studies. Specifically I am interested in the application of airborne remote sensing prospection techniques; airborne laser scanning (lidar), multi and hyper-spectral imaging for archaeological prospection
I have lots of experience in managing heritage data, especially geospatial data, having worked for a range of organisations across the commercial, academic and local government sectors. Currently I put this to good work running PTS Consultancy, where our main aim is to provide excellent practical training for heritage professionals and support community heritage projects to engage with lidar and landscapes. During 2020 and 2021, I taught remotely including the GIS for Archaeologists undergraduate and postgraduate module at Edinburgh University and Advanced Lidar for the team at TII. This experience and support from the Culture Recovery Fund enabled me to adapt our successful in-person training to CIfA approved online courses delivered via www.learnlidar.com.
When not at my desk you’ll most likely find me outdoors – running, cycling or swimming – and I’m always on the look out for my next adventure big or small!
