Spatial modelling, constraint mapping, corridor analysis, and decision-support platforms — for clients who need defensible, evidence-based spatial science.
Bespoke web mapping platforms, dashboards, and spatial decision-support environments integrating environmental datasets, modelling outputs, and real-time data for project teams and agencies.
Least-cost path, cost-distance, Circuitscape, and Linkage Mapper analyses identifying optimal movement pathways for ecological connectivity, infrastructure routing, and operational network design.
MCDA frameworks integrating environmental, engineering, planning, and operational constraints within transparent weighted models — supporting site selection, land assessment, and infrastructure planning.
Satellite imagery, LiDAR, and elevation model analysis to quantify landscape structure, vegetation condition, and environmental change — providing objective spatial metrics at landscape scale.
Integration of environmental, planning, engineering, and land-use datasets to clearly map where development is feasible, constrained, or unsuitable — supporting early-stage project scoping.
MaxEnt species distribution models, habitat suitability analyses, and landscape connectivity assessments integrating environmental variables, terrain, vegetation structure, and species occurrence data.
A selection of recent projects across government, infrastructure, and conservation sectors.
Principal consultant and sole report author. Designed and implemented a four sub-model MCDA framework to identify developable land opportunities consistent across 93 model variants, demonstrating that priority locations reflect genuine spatial patterns rather than modelling artefacts.
Indicative least-cost route between a major gas pipeline offtake and an industrial development area to support early-stage cost estimation. Built a multi-criteria cost surface from five weighted themes, trialling two weighting scenarios — ecology-led and directness-led — presented side by side for comparison.
Three engagements over six years to optimise field deployment logistics, with dual objectives of cost reduction and mitigating driving-related safety risk for field staff. Applied advanced network analysis solving the travelling salesman problem across evolving operational configurations.
