Welcome to the homepage of Arko Lucieer. I am a lecturer and researcher in Remote Sensing and Geographical Information Science (GIS) in the School of Geography and Environmental Studies at the University of Tasmania, Australia.
My research interest is in satellite image classification, segmentation, and change detection. I am particularly interested in texture-based and fuzzy image analysis techniques. Interactive visualization and visual data mining for image analysis are also key area of my research. The application areas I work in are environmental mapping and monitoring. At the moment, my focus is on vegetation classification and change detection on Australia's sub-Antarctic islands from very high resolution satellite imagery. You can find more information about my projects and publications on my research pages.
I teach GIS and Remote Sensing at a range of levels from undergraduate, to post-graduate. An overview of the GIS and remote sensing units at UTas can be found on my teaching pages. In addition, I supervise spatial research projects at the Honours, Masters, and PhD level.
My personal interests are climbing, mountain bike riding, mountaineering and ski touring. Photography is one of my main interest and you can find a selection of photographs of my travels and activities on my photo page. Other interests are computers, Linux, programming, and web development and design.
