As a specialist in geomatics and cartography, Professor Pulsifer's research addresses questions related to the use of geographic information with a particular focus on supporting interoperability: the ability of (geographic) information systems to readily share information and operations. He prioritizes consideration of sharing across differences in world view, discipline, language, culture, and other types of diversity. These research themes are highly relevant to his focus on community-based research and consideration of the links between Western scientific and Indigenous Knowledge. Peter's research background in mapping small city infrastructure led him to his focus on community-based research. Prof. Pulsifer has led several national and international committees and working and he will use this experience in co-leading this workshop.
