I'm Phil. I live & work in Edinburgh, Scotland. I spend my work time being an Environmental Data Scientist and tweeting about @ScienceAndMaps. I like to cut loose in the Hebrides and am trying to learn the lingo too. I recently passed on the mantle of running the Southside Whisky Club, although I still dabble in the odd whisky expirent with Maltiply and tweet occasionally there too. My research can be further explored on my Research Gate & GitHub, with more visual stuff running on my open source geospatial server, Contours. I carved a spoon and I liked it.
