Research

• Human and Environmental

Interactions

• Environmental Security
• Network and Systems Science

About Us

CRC: Dr. David L Griffith, Research Assistant Professor

David L Griffith is a Research Assistant Professor at the Center for Resilient Communities at the University of Idaho. He received his PhD in Environmental Science from the University of Idaho in 2016, with specializations in invasive species ecology and social-ecological systems

• science. He has previously worked at Virginia Tech and Appalachian

State University as an instructor of interdisciplinary studies and as a scientific writing and publishing consultant. He serves as a Co-Principal Investigator on the National Science Foundation Research Coordination Network: EyesNorth and his research focuses on best practices for Community-based Observing (CBO) science and expanding CBO methodologies to domains outside the Arctic. CBO science is a set of methodologies used to engage communities in taking a leading role in environmental and community safety.

About Us

Kestrel: Leo Naboyshchikov – Sr. Analyst

• Mr. Naboyshchikov is the lead analyst for Kestrel and is

responsible for the development of new analytical processes,

• verarching analytical support for various mission sets

including disaster management, security, and humanitarian assistance, as well as research and development of new technologies and product development. Moreover, he has served in the role of a field engineer— providing testing, support, and execution of experimental and production deployments where needed with Kestrel’s array

• f

related technologies. He also has extensive knowledge in social network analysis methodologies and programs, link and relational analysis, socio-behavioral analysis, data visualization, data fusion techniques, and data analysis. Kestrel Technology Group was founded in 2005 with a goal

• f adding situational awareness to field operations with a

secure data collection application on readily-available mobile devices. Kestrel‘s unique combination of technology and methods empowers knowledge-based operations with a system that is versatile, scalable, and readily-deployed on clouds, servers, and field mobile units.

Related Work

CBONs are long term, collaborative

• bservatories focused on linked

environmental and social change. They are driven by the data needs of both communities and researchers. Trusted and trained community members provide observations. Researchers assist with analysis and data management. Data is owned by the communities.

Technology in Use Now

Audience Participation

In this presentation, we’ll be using Poll Everywhere to enable us to do some audience participation. If you’d like to join the activities, please have your phone (on silent!) or laptop ready to use in a few minutes. All of your responses to questions are anonymous.

• To participate on the web, open any browser and

visit www.pollev.com/nextgen2019

• Wait for the poll to appear and submit your

response.

Question 1 (Three Minutes):

• We use technology in our communities now, but

there are many new options that seem to come

• nto the market daily. We’d like to identify and

discuss some of the factors that you think are responsible for why internet or app-based technological solutions aren’t already universally used.

• What is a single word that you identify with

the most important barrier to or issue with using internet- or web-based technology in your school or community to enhance safety?

Audience Participation

• To participate on the web, open

any browser from phone or laptop and visit: www.pollev.com/nextgen2019

• Wait for the poll question to

appear and submit your response.

• All responses are anonymous.

Question 2 (Five Minutes):

• We’ve taken the top responses from the

previous question, and we’d like you to think about how important they are as barriers to or issues with adoption of internet- or app-based technology.

• Please rank the single-word answers from

High Concern (1) to Less Concern (2). Feel free to discuss with your neighbors while you complete this exercise.

Audience Participation

Question 3 (Five Minutes):

• We all want to do what we can to make and

keep our schools and communities as safe as

• possible. Take a few minutes, and write a

single sentence that sums up for you the best way that you think technology can and should be used to improve safety for all of us.

• Feel free to talk to your neighbors while

thinking of solutions, and you’ll be able to vote on which you think are best (or which shouldn’t even be on the table).
