Joe Morgan graduated from the University at Buffalo as an IGERT Scholar is currently at Texas A&M University in the Department of Geography. He will be assuming a new position at Jacksonville State University, Jacksonville, Alabama in January 2010. Dr. Morgan’s graduate research deals specifically with attitudes towards privacy in a spatial context. The primary focus is the impact that the growth and democratization of spatial technologies has on the perceptions of privacy in contemporary society. Dr. Morgan is also evaluating the commodification of spatial data as it relates to privacy concerns of technology consumers. Of particular interest is the how the use of geospatial technological such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), global positioning systems (GPS), location based services (LBS), and other spatially aware technologies have led to a significant increase in the collection and use of personally identifiable spatial data. Dr. Morgan is also working with the Ministry of Works and Human Settlement and Sherubtse College to establish a GIS pilot project for Thimphu City, the capital city of Bhutan. He has been involved with the development of internships between the Bhutanese Government and The Department of Geography to create a trained workforce for GIS applications. It is hoped that a Student / Faculty exchange program between a U.S. institution and the Royal University of Bhutan can also be established.
