Dr James Charlton

Associate Professor

Department: Architecture and Built Environment

James Charlton Resize My undergraduate degree in Architectural Technology provided me with the fundamental knowledge and skills in Building Information Modelling, 3D visualisation and performance analysis within Architecture. These skills were further developed throughout my PhD, during which I gained knowledge in a wide range of analytical software applicable to the subject area of architectural and built environment visualisation.

During my career I have both lead and supported numerous high impact enterprise and research projects ranging from performance analysis and visualisation within architecture and urban design, to data management and utilisation within the fields of BIM and smart cities. By gaining further and bespoke experience in a wide range of analytical and visualisation tools, I am able to offer a unique skill set to teaching, research and enterprise. I am highly trained in Building Information Modelling, 3D modelling and laser scanning technologies. I have been able to pass on this knowledge via teaching and supporting roles across Architecture and built environment disciplines and publish outputs to a high level. I constantly strive to expand upon my current list of published work via both individual and collaborative research projects.
