The University of Alberta and the Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute (ABMI) have developed a research partnership. This long-term initiative positions Alberta as a world leader in the field of biodiversity monitoring and research. Designed to track and understand changes in biodiversity throughout Alberta, this initiative provides Albertans with the ability to make informed decisions about the state of their environment in ways previously not possible. The Institute operates using a distributed delivery model involving the following partner organizations: University of Alberta, University of Calgary, and InnoTech Alberta.

Reporting to the ABMI’s Executive Director, the Imaging Centre Director is a member of the ABMI Management Team and responsible for implementing the mandate of the Imaging Centre.

To accomplish this, the Director facilitates and manages effective relationships with researchers and scientists across the spectrum of natural resource management including government, Indigenous communities, agriculture industry, forest industry, energy industry, and the environmental community. This includes facilitating the creation of high-resolution geospatial data that will be applied to environmental challenges including restoration, reclamation, climate change, species-at-risk management, land use mapping, and provincial/territorial planning.
