Research Interests

Charles is an Earth Observation Scientist with 18+ years’ experience using optical remote sensing technologies (multi and hyper-spectral sensors, single date and multi-temporal imagery, ground radiometry), to extract biogeochemical properties of land surface vegetation, assessing their accuracy, and facilitating the uptake of the data products in ecology, hydrology and climate modelling. This includes extensive experience in the use of field campaigns to provide information both for training data sets, and validation of results. He also uses hyperspectral instruments fitted to UAV’s (multirotor drones) to extract similar data at high spatial and temporal resolutions.
