Dr. Greg McDermid

I am a remote sensing scientist who joined the Department of Geography, University of Calgary, in January 2005, after 10 years working in industry. I studied at the University of Calgary (B.Sc., 1991; M.Sc. 1993) and the University of Waterloo (Ph.D., 2005) in areas of physical geography, GIS, and remote sensing. I direct the Applied Geospatial Research Group and work on the application of remote sensing and other geospatial tools for restoration assessment, wildlife habitat modelling, and other ecological issues. I am Principal Investigator in the Boreal Ecosystem Recovery and Assessment (BERA) project.
