Expertise Credentials:
Professor Townshend arrived at the University of Maryland in 1989 as chair of the Department of Geography. Under his leadership as chair (1989-1995 and 2001-2009), the department has become a recognized leader in the use of satellite technology to study changes in land cover and how those changes both reflect and impact social, political, economic, environmental and climate changes, and other conditions of human life. During that time the department has achieved higher levels of excellence in its programs, as well as in the recruitment of outstanding faculty, staff, and students. And it also has earned a reputation as one of the country's leading geography department in terms of research income. Townshend earned his BSc (1967) and PhD (1971) from University College London. Before coming to the University of Maryland, he held positions at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, the University of Reading (England), and the University of Dar es Salaam (Tanzania).
His current research focuses on the rates and causes of vegetation cover change especially deforestation, through the use of remotely sensed data from satellites, funded primarily through NASA grants. He is also the Principal Investigator of the university's Global Land Cover Facility, which houses the largest open access non-governmental online collection of Landsat satellite data in the world.
The most recent of Dr. Townshend's many honors is this year's award as Honorary Fellow of the UK Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry Society.
