I am a senior researcher at NORCE Energy & Technology in the Digital Systems group, with more than 25 years of experience in software development within research projects. I work with developing digital solutions for collection, analysis, and visualization of complex datasets, with particular emphasis on real-time data and cross-disciplinary applications.
My main professional interests include data visualization, geographical information systems (GIS), and the analysis of real-time data. A central area of work has been the collection and analysis of data from maritime systems, including through AIS vessel tracking. I have also been central to the development of Enlighten, a generic web platform for visualization and interactive exploration of research data. The platform has been adopted in several scientific contexts, including making geoscientific data accessible through European research infrastructures such as EPOS-Norway and ENVRI-FAIR.
My work spans several application areas. I have worked with monitoring of water quality parameters in hydropower operations (iAMP-Hydro), as well as developing automated solutions for analysis of biological data and measurements from environmental samples. This has formed part of research on detecting waterborne pathogens and antimicrobial resistance as part of genomic environmental surveillance (ODIN). I have also contributed to a research project investigating how artificial intelligence can support clinical assessment in emergency medical services, through AI-based decision support for medical telephone triage (RE-AIMED).
I started working at Christian Michelsen Research in 2001 and have since built broad experience in developing and applying a diverse range of technologies in research-driven development processes.
I hold a Master's degree in Computer Technology (siv.ing.) from NTNU, and an engineering degree from Bergen University College.
