PhD Studentship in Geoinformatics, UK
PhD in Geoinformatics of Cardiff University UK
Job Description: The Geoenvironmental Research Centre (GRC) is based in the Cardiff School of Engineering, in Cardiff University, Wales UK.
Performing research at the leading edge of the Geoenvironmental and Geotechnical fields with a commitment to serve local and national research needs of industry, the GRC conducts R&D solutions for a host of land environment problems with interest ranging from fundamental studies, through project based applications to commercial exploitation and development.
Fields of research at the centre include; contaminated land and clean-up technologies for contaminated land, landfill engineering, land reclamation, slope stability, soil strengthening, waste disposal including nuclear waste, engineering behaviour of unsaturated soil, heat losses from buried objects, attenuation characteristics of soils, arsenic poisoning of groundwater and the influence of environmental conditions on the performance of underground distribution systems.
PhD topic – Development of web-based GIS system for geoenvironmental data.
A web-based GIS system will be created based upon existing GIS software developed. A variety of tools will be incorporated to allow environmental data to be collected, both on the surface and subsurface, and decisions to be taken.
These tools may include:
i) surface/sub-surface display;
ii) disparate information collection, e.g. mobile phone applications;
iii) multi-physics models for process prediction;
iv) Artificial Intelligence (AI) decision support systems.
The visualisation of the results and useful webdisplay will be an important aspect of this PhD. It is anticipated that among other applications, a large scale case study of analysing the performance of CO2 sequestration in coal in Wales will be undertaken.
Application Deadline 30 September 2010
