Claudette Lopez
- Marine Geospatial Data Assistant
Biography
I am responsible for consolidating the accurate positional track-history of BAS-operated vessels such as the RRS James Clark Ross and Ernest Shackleton. I work foremost with positional underway data collected throughout scientific ‘Research’ cruises. I also work with supplementary geospatial data sources such as Deck logs, Meteorological reports, and AIS/LRIT.
My background is in the modelling of ancient human-landscape interactions using machine learning techniques such as optimal path analysis and particle swarm optimization. My postgraduate research specialized on ‘Peak Sanctuaries,’ an Aegean Late Bronze Age practice.
