Expertise in geospatial and statitstical analysis, modelling, and data management
through engagements with CSIRO/Ecosystem Science, Geological Survey of Victoria, Bureau of Meteorology (BOM), Queensland Department of Natural Resource and Deakin University Melbourne.
Examples of international assignments are spatial planning, GIS application development and capacity building for Conservation International, Afghan Ministries of Agriculture (MAIL) and Rural Development (MRRD), the Libyan Environmental Government Agency in 2009 as well as national feasibility study for a GIS-platform for the Asian Development Bank (2015).
