The main areas of expertise are listed below.  Research and consultancy services are available in all these areas.

Data Analysis

Analysis of data collected from surveys, experiments, trials, or observational studies. Wide range of statistical techniques available and full reports and interpretation of results will be provided.

Statistics

Some of the main statistical techniques in which expertise is available: surveys, experiments, simulation, time-series and forecasting, multivariate analysis, pattern recognition and image analysis, spatial, risk and survival modelling.

Operational Research

...otherwise known as Management Science, this area of expertise is concerned with:   optimization methods, Linear, Quadratic, Integer and Dynamic Programming, cognitive mapping and Repertory Grid Analysis,  Performance Indicators, Data Envelopment Analysis, Problem structuring methods, Group Decision Making

Network Analysis

...mostly Social Network Analysis.  Concerned with characterizing measures of structure and function in social networks and the development of software for the practical analysis network structures in organizations.

Data-Mining

Construction of a data-warehouse of an organization's historical data can be the first step to a new strategic overview of the operation of the organization.
Use of machine learning algorithms, adapted to very large datasets, enable the data in the warehouse to be mined for interesting patterns, relationships and knowledge that may provide the organization with strategic insights which may lead to competitive advantage for companies.

Forest Modelling

Forest Mensuration, Growth and Yield Modelling; Inventory Design and Analysis and Software; Remote Sensing for mapping of forest and other land-uses;  Enhanced classification and data fusion algorithms for monitoring forest growth and change;  map accuracy determination.
