- Collected, managed, and processed spectral imagery data as part of the Mer Bleue Arctic Surrogate Simulation Site (MBASSS) project, and created a preliminary visualization website for the project using ​ESRI StoryMaps​ and WordPress.- Organized field work, taking into consideration; ideal weather conditions, personnel, transportation and equipment. As part of this I also delegated and managed note-taking, equipment set up, and data collection.- Post field work, I organized all of the assorted imagery and metadata into a coherent file system. I then processed the data, and created graphs and explanations of the results to be used for the projects website.

Collected LIDAR scans of a cave system and created ​3D reconstructions​ from LIDAR point clouds using MeshLab. I did this by visually lining up point clouds to create an accurate 3D image of the cave for a simulated fly-through.
