Dr. Yongze Song, RGS Fellow, is a Lecturer and Doctoral Supervisor at Curtin University, Australia.
He has expertise in developing geospatial methods and implementing Earth data for sustainable infrastructure. He developed a series of geospatial methods and 6 R software packages with over 88,000 downloads globally for understanding geographical and spatial data. He published over 50 peer-reviewed journal articles in the fields, including 2 ESI highly cited papers, and 14 articles in journals with Impact Factors higher than 10. His H-index is 22. He is a recipient of 12 awards at international and national levels, such as the Global Top 10 Young Scientist Award, Global Top 1% Peer Review Awards in Geosciences, and the Australian National Location Data First Prize.
He is an Editorial Board Member of GIScience & Remote Sensing (IF 6.397). He is a Managing Guest Editor of the International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, Remote Sensing, and Sustainable Earth. He serves as a Session Chair, Scientific Committee Member, Keynote Speaker, or Special Issue Coordinator for international conferences IAMG, AAG, AGILE, WBC, IPC, IWEG, ICCSTE, etc. He serves for over 30 peer-reviewed journals as a reviewer. He was invited to present more than 40 research seminars at universities (e.g., Harvard University) and industries globally.
