Research Interests

My two primary interest are in production mapping and map projections. I have been a member of the Department of Geography and Environmental Systems since 1986. Between 1996 and 1998 I worked with Dr. Lamouse-Smith, Africana Studies Department, on a CD of Africa Maps. The CD was designed to introduce the continent to students through a web based interface. It incorporates some seven hundred pages of maps, photographs, tables, and questions. In 2002 I worked with Dr. Sari Bennett, Department of Geography & Environmental Systems, on a Physiographic Map of Maryland. The Map was distributed to each Maryland County for use in all 4th grade classrooms.

Over the years I have worked on a number of different projects with both Faculty, Government, and Private Companies. One the most enjoyable parts of my job is the opportunity to get students involved in real world contracts, as well as, individual projects.
