Dr. Jeremy Arkin

Jeremy is a remote sensing scientist that focuses on the use of spatial data for wildfire applications. His interest in wildfire began while earning undergraduate degrees in Geography and Ecology at the University of Colorado, where he studied fire-induced ecosystem shifts caused by the 2002 Hayman Fire. Further academic experience includes the completion of a PhD from the University of British Columbia through the investigation of drone-based remote sensing technologies to analyze pre-fire risk and post-fire severity, culminating in four peer-reviewed publications. Professional experience includes working as a conventional forester and GIS technician in Colorado, as well as a Remote Sensing Specialist for a forest management consultant in British Columbia.
