Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Malcolm Williamson's research focuses on the application of remote sensing technologies, particularly unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and photogrammetry, across diverse scientific fields. He investigates how UAS-based imagery and thermal sensing can inform agricultural practices, such as evaluating the influence of soil heterogeneity on soybean development and crop yield. His work also extends to archaeological and anthropological applications, utilizing UAS photogrammetry for field sciences, including object avoidance and 3D flight planning, and identifying the functions of historical gravel mulch fields. Williamson has also explored the challenges and limitations of geospatial data in the context of public health, specifically concerning COVID-19. His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 7, with 67 total publications and 430 citations. He has collaborated with several researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Jackson Cothren and Carla Klehm.
