Short Bio:

Dr. Li¡¯s research specializes in the fields of geographic information science and remote sensing, semantic interoperability, spatio-temporal data mining, spatial information retrieval and distributed geospatial information processing. The goal of her research is to develop integrated, sustainable and smart cyberinfrastructure to revolutionize knowledge discovery in data and computational intensive geographical sciences. In particular, she is interested in utilizing semantic technology to improve the access, integration and interoperability of distributed GIS data, analytical tools and models. Dr. Li's research has been applied in a number of science disciplines, such as climate, public health and hydrology. She is also interested in developing analytical methods (e.g., spatial optimization) to support regional economic modeling. Before joining ASU as a faculty, she worked at the Center for Spatial Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara as a postdoc from 08/2010-08/2012.
