Janet Anstee is an aquatic remote sensing scientist and Research
Group Leader of the Aquatic Ecosystem Processes group at CSIRO Environment's
Coastal and Oceanic Systems program. She specializes in applying validated
bio-optical models to advance water quality discrimination and enhance
understanding of aquatic habitats. Her work encompasses atmospheric radiative
transfer, semi-analytical inversion models, and scientific,
technical, and logistical expertise in aquatic remote sensing calibration and
validation. Janet was a member of the International Shallow Water Working Group
(US Office of Naval Research 2008-2011), and one of the leading Australian
collaborators in the 2017 NASA COral Reef Airborne Laboratory (2016-2017). She was the principal investigator for the Eye on Water - Australia project (2017-2022) which implemented citizen science program to help validation satellite water colour retrievals. Currently,
Janet's research is focused on two main areas. First, she is the lead for the development
of a dark water autonomous calibration and validation facility. This facility
will play a crucial role in validating satellite sensors and refining
hyperspectral algorithms for Australian applications. Second, she is actively
involved in determining the technological requirements for hyperspectral
imaging in the CSIRO AquaWatch Australia Mission (water quality) and a
collaborative project with the University of Queensland and the SmartSat CRC
(coral reefs and seagrass).
