Dr. Robert Berry, Research Fellow

BSc (Geography), MSc (Geographical Information Systems), PhD (Geographical Information Systems)

I am the coordinator of the Open Geospatial Lab (GOGL) that runs in partnership with the University of Gloucestershire School of Natural and Social Sciences. The aim of this initiative is to develop and promote open source GIS education in the University’s undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes, as well as to stimulate innovative research in the application of open source geospatial technologies.

Dr. Lucy Clarke, Senior Lecturer

BSc (Geography), MSc (Geography and Surveying), PhD (Geography)

I am a Physical Geographer that specialises in river processes, natural flood management and using image analysis and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to explore landscape change. I am involved in implementing and assessing ‘slow the flow’ schemes in Gloucestershire and surrounding counties. I am also currently working with the British Antarctic Survey using historic aerial photographs and satellite imagery to look at glacier change on Antarctica. This gives me the opportunity to incorporate both my Antarctic data and active river research projects into my geography teaching.
