Dr Timothy Farewell is a geospatial soil and environmental scientist specialising in the dynamic interactions between geohazards and critical infrastructure. He holds a first class Geology degree from the University of Durham, a Masters in Geographic Information Management from Cranfield University from where he also was also awarded a PhD in "Innovative Methods of Soil Parent Material Mapping". Dr Farewell has worked at Cranfield University since 2003, and his academic career has developed as a result of his wide-ranging knowledge transfer work with the utilities industry and financial services, as well as government agencies. He has helped these organisations to understand and make use of (previously opaque) soil maps and complex spatio-temporal environmental data to enhance their decision making processes.
