معرفی
Luke Christison serves as a Researcher specializing in Data Visualisation within the School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics. His work bridges technical analysis and artistic expression, focusing on complex maritime and environmental systems through innovative visualization techniques.
His research spans Data Visualization, Maritime Cyber Security, Geospatial Analysis, and Human-Autonomy Teaming, with particular expertise in translating real-time maritime data into actionable insights. Christison develops interactive visual frameworks for port infrastructure monitoring, cyber vulnerability assessment in autonomous vessels, and environmental data representation in aquatic ecosystems.
Analysis of his publications reveals a consistent trajectory toward interdisciplinary maritime applications, combining cybersecurity with human factors in autonomous systems. His work increasingly integrates artistic approaches to make complex cyber-physical data accessible, as seen in projects spanning congressional reporting systems to real-time port operations visualization.
Christison contributed as Research Fellow to the Cyber-SHIP project (2019-2024), funded by Research England, investigating cyber vulnerabilities in maritime human-autonomy teaming. This collaborative effort involved researchers from multiple disciplines addressing critical security challenges in autonomous maritime operations.
He maintains strong ties with the i-DAT (Institute of Digital Art and Technology) research group, evidenced by his 2015 DataJam-Quorum project. His current work involves cross-disciplinary teams integrating data science, maritime engineering, and digital art for real-time environmental and security applications.
