George's work is in the domain of Earth and Planetary Observation Geosciences/Geospatial
(EPOGEO) analysis, writ large. He enjoys building high performance computing and visualization
(HPC/HPV) systems, EPOGEO workflow clusters, as components of integrated research and
instructional computing facilities. George's primary responsibilities at EPS are the SGER computer cluster and geophysics, geospatial dataset analysis tools, workflows; the Harvard/SGER EPOGEO Visualization Facility; and the department's Instructional Computing Facility (ICF) and Research Computing Common (RCC). He also provides instructional and research GIS facility and geospatial database support for Anthropology/Archaeology. George got his start bird watching and fossil collecting with binoculars and rock hammer. His ambition is to extend the reach of the classical Museum community approach -- observation, collection, curation, analysis, intepretation, publication, instruction, display -- to new realms, using 21st century computational tools, data sources, workflows. At Harvard, this is the answer to the question, "After Agassiz, What?" .
