OverviewAI-generated summary
Malcolm Williamson's research focuses on the application of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and geospatial technologies for scientific investigation. His work has explored the use of UAS photogrammetry and thermal sensors to identify archaeological features, such as Puebloan gravel mulch fields, and to understand their functions. He has also investigated the influence of soil heterogeneity on agricultural development and crop yield using time-series data from UAV and ground-based geophysical imagery.
Williamson's research extends to addressing challenges and limitations within geospatial data and analyses, particularly in the context of public health events like COVID-19. His expertise includes 3D flight planning and object avoidance for small UAS in remote field scenarios, as demonstrated by his work with the Skydio 2+ Enterprise Kit. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 7, with 68 total publications and 427 citations. He has collaborated with researchers such as Jackson Cothren and Carla E. Klehm at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
