Scottish Woodlands Ltd is Scotland's leading independent full-service forest management company. It is also the second largest operator in the UK, with a network of 17 offices operating throughout Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Summary: Visualisation techniques have been recognised as one of the major directions in future research when handling and querying biological data, offering the ability to find patterns and outliers in data which traditional query interfaces cannot match.
The implementation of a software tool for analysing large and complex pedigree genotype datasets (thousands of individuals genotyped for thousands of markers). The tool will combine genetic inference algorithms that report inheritance inconsistencies for marker genotypes across the pedigree with an...
The games industry is changing the method of distribution from retail to online. GamesAnalytics Ltd has been created to provide analytic services to improve the profitability of the games industry. Because games are now generally played online detailed event information can be collected at...
This project was investigating the feasibility of providing interactive visualisation tools for exploring statistical information on data cleansing.
Microarray time-course data relates to the recorded activity of large numbers of genes (~8,000) recorded in parallel over a number of time points (~20). This data contains a massive amount of potentially valuable information. In order to unlock that information, a biologist needs to find patterns...
This project page provides links to the online resources referred to in my PhD, 'Monitoring the conformance of planning decisions to urban land use policies using Information Extraction and GeoVisualisation'. Each example is accompanied by a short explanation of what it shows.
Taxonomy has been described as “the science of documenting biodiversity”, which involves collecting, naming, describing, identifying and classifying specimens of organisms. Descriptions are the fundamental information units used in the process of constructing classifications and communicating...
The aim of the project is to construct a database system that will meet the requirements of current taxonomy practices. In particular, it will allow taxonomists to view and explore alternative classifications. The system will support provision of single authoritative classifications for use by...
Developing statistical and visualisation software for the visual analysis of games meta-data
IIDI and Agenor are working together to design interactive web-based visualisations. This project is supported under the SFC innovation Voucher scheme. Agenor is an independent IT Services and Software company based in the Scottish Borders.
The Edinburgh Physiotherapy Centre Ltd is looking at using its experience to produce an online web physio service for use of the general public and sports related bodies. They require help to develop a site which will include a 3D body avatar which can be used for diagnosis of problems via a...
This project evaluated the potential of several Free Open Source Software packages for the purpose of creating a bespoke GIS for use by geologists. It was conducted in collaboration with GeoloGIS Ltd.
The work proposed is to scope out initial requirements for the submission of a SMART award application to develop a Digital Dashboard for use in the NHS to meet these needs. The work will involve background research into the company’s existing software for collecting information on a patient’s...
The goals of the project are to make fundamental improvements in how researchers can 1) gain global access to ecological data and information, 2) rapidly locate and utilize distributed computational services, and 3) exercise powerful new methods for capturing, reproducing, and extending the...
The TaxViz project is developing visualisation techniques for comparing multiple taxonomic hierarchies. Biological taxonomy involves the classification and naming of plants, animals and all the other living organisms on earth, however taxonomists often disagree over how the organisms should be...
OPaL aims to explore the potential of tools that can assist firms to configure partnerships as and when required to meet the demands of a volatile distributed workplace (Handy, 1992). Whatever the motivation for re-structuring (reduced transaction costs, reduced agency costs, innovation),...
A research project aiming to provide a software workbench which facilitates the rapid in a manner which is independent of any specific underlying database system. This will provide a means for moving database interface development from an ad hoc, system-specific context towards more general and...
