Dr Shaozhong SHI is starting a new page.

Shaozhong SHI was born in Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province, China. He was educated at B.Sc, M.Sc through to Ph.D level in Nanjing University, prior to transfer to work at Coventry University, in research association with Oxford University. Shaozhong SHI received his PhD from Coventry University, UK in 1995. He worked as a geography researcher and geoscientific techniques lecturer at Coventry University, Inverness College in association with Stirling University, Liverpool Hope University College, U.K. respectively. He worked as one of managing directors and Ph.D supervisors of the Shenzhen Centre of the National Key Laboratory of IT, GIS and Remote Sensing, Wuhan University. He also worked as the Human Resource and Administration Manager of a multi-national high tech company in China.

He worked as a Research Associate at Kingston University. His recent research interests are about internet service integration and creating automated geoprocessing services, new business creation, and consulting. He is the leading inventor of a latest innovative geospatial cloud computing demonstrator system and paradigm in the United Kingdom.

He is now a Research Fellow at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth, Greater Dublin. He invented a new software solution for topologically consistent line simplification and map generalisation. This is believed to be the only working automated OS solution based on a novel turning point approach available on the Planet of the Earth, according to the latest publication review. Most importantly, this solution offers seamless vector map generalisation.

Over recent years, he has been invited by many institutes and companies globally.

He has a wide network of high level contacts globally and is the owner of a UK/EU-China professional network.

He is the architecture, system designer and developer of a new paradigm GIS, geospatial portal service/Web GIS demonstrator service, known as Kingston Automated Geoinformation Service (KAGIS).

His recent publications are as follows:
