| Ned Dwyer received a B.A.I. in Electronic Engineering from Trinity College Dublin and a M.Sc. in Remote Sensing and Image Processing Technology from Edinburgh University. Having worked on data product quality control and applications programming for the ERS satellite at the European Space Agency's ESRIN site near Rome in Italy, Ned returned to the academic life by carrying out a Ph.D. at the European Commission's Joint Research Centre in Ispra, Italy. The degree in Forest Engineering was awarded by the Technical University of Lisbon (2000) for the analysis of global fire patterns as determined from a 12 month period of NOAA-AVHRR satellite observations.
From 1999 to 2002 Ned worked for a small, innovative, hi-tech company, Sarmap, based in southern Switzerland, where he specialised in the analysis and application of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data to forest mapping and in particular burned area determination. He joined CMRC in 2002 as project manager for the MIDA . From 2006 he held an EPA fellowship to carry out research into the status of climate observation systems in Ireland and has developed an action plan for long term observations and data analysis in order to meet Ireland’s climate change monitoring commitments at national and international level. He contributes to the FP6 funded LIMES project on maritime security and liaises with the Irish Naval Service in terms of their user requirements. Maintaining his interest in remote sensing he is currently supervising one PhD and two Masters students looking at soil moisture retrieval using SAR, vegetation seasonality monitoring using MERIS and raised bog habitat mapping and displacement measurement using optical and radar systems respectively. Ned is also the co-chair of the International Coastal Atlas Network. He is an occasional lecturer on remote sensing and GIS topics at UCC. He is also the editor of the CMRC newsletter. |
