Case Studies
Dr Jonathan Smith is the Deputy Science Leader of the AI Lab at the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) and leads a team in developing AI systems for decision support in marine planning. The AI decision support systems allows operational planning experts to tap into cutting edge solutions that define ways to coordinate large fleets of ships and autonomous vehicles to maximise data collection whilst minimise carbon cost. On top of this work BAS is developing cutting edge machine learning solutions for marine vessel optimal route planning in changing environmental solutions and forecasting of environmental variables (e.g. Sea-Ice). Prior to joining BAS Jonathan was an invited research fellow at California Institute of Technology, and during this position he developed cutting edge machine learning software for the real-time monitoring of Southern California earthquakes.
