Matt Duckham: I am an ARC Fellow at the Department of Geomatics, University of Melbourne, where I also hold an appointment as a senior lecturer in Geographic Information Science. My group's research centers on distributed and robust computation with uncertain spatial and spatiotemporal information, especially within the domain of mobile, location-aware, and sensor-enabled systems. I am a founder member of the Spatial Information Science Research Group at the University of Melbourne. In the past, I have taught undergraduate and postgraduate courses at the University of Melbourne in spatial databases, location-based services, geosensor networks, and programming with GIS and databases.

Journal of Spatial Information Science: I am a founding Editor in Chief of the Journal of Spatial Information Science (JOSIS), the first broad coverage, open-access, international journal for the field. JOSIS is fully peer reviewed, with articles publicy available for download at no charge (to readers or authors). The journal is not owned or supported by any commercial publishers, and we rely on involvement from the spatial information science community, so please visit http://www.josis.org and get involved!

Software: I've written a simple Oracle spatial data viewer in Java, primarily for teaching purposes. You can download the viewer from the Software page. The page also contains links to software for generating non-convex hulls that characterize the set of points in the plane, using a new "characteristic shapes" algorithm presented in a forthcoming Pattern Recognition paper.
