About Professor Antoni Moore's research:
Antoni Moore is a geographical information scientist (GIS) with particular interest in spatial communication through maps and other geographical visualisations. He has degrees in geography and GIS from Portsmouth (BSc Hons), Leicester (MSc) and Plymouth (PhD). He joined Otago’s Information Science department in 2001, before moving to Surveying in 2008. In his core research, Antoni explores diverse approaches to the challenge of displaying mapped data, so that they communicate their purpose more effectively. These approaches include popular art media (comics), geographic theory (time geography), information visualisation (graph networks) and prevalent technologies (virtual and augmented reality). He also applies spatial analysis and modelling to various topics, including aspects of health, exercise, land use and the effects of sea level rise. He is PI on the Marsden-funded Strand research project, working with a multidisciplinary team to study climate change-related loss of coastal property value. Antoni is Dean of the School of Surveying and President of the New Zealand Cartographic Society.
This lecture will be followed with light refreshments, tea, coffee and juice.
