01

Product direction

Accessible Earth observation

Designing ways for non-specialists to discover, interpret and use satellite-derived information without first learning the infrastructure behind it.

Typical contribution: User framing, product concept, requirements translation and hands-on prototyping

02

Programme leadership

Operational EO services

Helping mature geospatial capabilities become reliable services through clearer ownership, delivery governance, monitoring, support processes and practical roadmaps.

Typical contribution: Programme ownership, stakeholder coordination, risk management and operationalisation

03

Applied research & prototyping

AI-assisted geospatial workflows

Exploring how natural-language interaction and agent-assisted development can reduce friction for both users and technical teams while retaining provenance and interpretability.

Typical contribution: Concept development, architecture exploration and AI-assisted implementation

04

Geospatial research

Environmental change analysis

Applying Earth-observation and GIS methods to understand land-use, land-cover and environmental change across complex landscapes.

Typical contribution: Research design, spatial analysis, interpretation and communication

Working principles

Start with the decision

Understand what a person needs to decide or do before selecting data, models or infrastructure.

Absorb complexity

Move technical burden into the system rather than transferring it to users through complicated interfaces.

Design for operation

A prototype becomes valuable only when ownership, reliability, costs, monitoring and support are understood.
