Joe Bates

Joe joins Fathom as a Graduate Developer, having recently completed his MSci in Environmental Science at the University of Sheffield.

His studies focused on analysing environmental impacts and approaches to visualising these within models. This included a broad range of statistical uses including validation and GIS techniques. In general, his findings showed an increased need for both environmental adaptation and mitigation, as well as increasing public awareness of some of the less well-known impacts of the changing climate.

This experience introduced him to the various statistical techniques needed within flood modelling as well as a broad understanding of coding and environmental issues. This will help him in his role at Fathom where he is excited to work at the forefront of research, further develop his skills and learn from some of the top researchers in the field.
