Brian Clement - Software Engineer
Brian joined Forest Research in 1978 as part of the Computer Centre's user support team. In 1985 he moved into an applications development role with the Harvest Planning Group, and when the merging of the HPG and LIRA formed the Logging Industry Research Organisation (LIRO), he had sole responsibility for all of LIRO's IT matters.
In 1998 his position was dis-established, and after a short period of external consulting he returned to Forest Research to join the Atlas software development team as a long-term contractor. He has a particular interest in data collection and instrumentation, and had a major role in the development of Forest Research’s automated logmaking caliper, which subsequently evolved into IFR's TimberTech.
Within ATLAS, he has been responsible for the field data collection application FieldMan, and is also involved with the development of Cruiser and Forecaster
Brian has a BE Hons (Elect) from the University of Canterbury, and an MA (Comp Sci) from Massey University.
