Carrol Chan

I am currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Newcastle, Australia and have been leading and organising OSM community events in Fiji under OSM Fiji for the last three years. My research investigates the feasibility of remote sensing as a tool to monitor invasive alien plant species in the Pacific and is supported by the Pacific Regional Invasive Speices Management Support Services (PRISMSS) faciliated by SPREP. Prior to my PhD I worked in the geospatial industry across the Pacific region, based in Fiji, my home.

In the Pacific Islands region, where there are over 30,000 islands vulnerable to invasion and isolated, geospatial data and remote sensing are suitable tools to detect, manage and monitor prolific invasive species that are causing environmental and socio-economic impact.
