This project will have the Marketing and Communications intern using their existing, and new skills to develop marketing content and campaigns, as well as communication connections between our partners. This internship will be vital to getting our name into the Charitable market, and provide valuable insight into our growth strategy for 2022.

FluidPlanet.org is a non-profit organization that builds and runs gaming-based interactive digital twins (virtual versions of real places) with other non-profit organizations (e.g., universities, communities, etc.) to support the understanding and study of public environments. In this project, FluidPlanet.org will work with the University of Lethbridge and the University of Calgary to develop digital twins […]

Seismic lines – linear exploration corridors constructed for petroleum exploration – bisect the forests of northern Alberta and influence a host of ecosystem processes. There are an estimated 1.8 million kilometers of seismic lines in Alberta alone. Unfortunately, many of these lines are in a state of arrested succession and are unlikely to recover without […]

Large-scale graphene production has received significant attention because of its interesting properties and a wide range of potential applications. Conventional approaches provide scalable pathways for large scale production, however, these methods face several challenges such as usage of corrosive, toxic solution, long duration, and poor quality of graphene produced which severely affects its potential applications. […]

Children diagnosed with cancer undergo complex and intensive chemotherapy treatments that often require repeated hospital visits and admissions. Advancement in technology has now made chemotherapy and other cancer care possible to be administered at home. However, there are currently no formal evaluation comparing these two modes of delivery. Therefore, the proposed study will compare psychosocial […]

The project investigates how to design and implement high quality user experiences for extended reality (XR) applications that are deployed over 5G networks. Interns will elicit high level quality of experience requirements for such applications, determine appropriate metrics to reach these goals and micro-service based software architectures to build such applications. We are in particular […]

The boreal ecosystem in the Northern Alberta is strongly segmented by linear exploration corridors for petroleum exploartion, called seismic lines. Unfortunately, many of these lines are in a state of arrested succession and are unlikely to recover without active intervention. Restoration planning for such a large affected area demands knoledge about the possibility and the […]

The boreal ecosystem in the Northern Alberta is strongly segmented by linear exploration corridors for petroleum exploartion, calles seismic lines. Unfortunately, many of these lines are in a state of arrested succession and are unlikely to recover without active intervention. An essential variable to the understanding of regeneration of forest cover is the hydrology and […]

Data visualization is an important approach to help people understand data by graphic representation of data. Along with the development of various electronic devices and sensors, big data era is coming to us. Data visualization plays an increasingly important role in this era. However, research indicated that it’s hard for non visualization experts to author […]

The influence of seismic lines and other linear features can extend well into the surrounding forest, but the magnitude of this effect and the factors controlling it are poorly understood. The disruption of hydrological process by linear features is one such ‘edge effect’ of particular interest to BERA. Previous research by Caitlin Wilier (2017) in […]

Scope of work: Develop and implement data science models to identify construction projects relevant to our clients, before they go up for bid. Apply machine learning algorithms to public and proprietary datasets to recommend contract opportunities at as early stage as possible in the building process. Develop and implement logic to be applied to this […]

This project fills a data gap by creating key research inputs in the climate policy space: an online climate policy database and stringency index. We organize and classify government actions related to climate change in Canada by key criteria of interest including economic sector, target outcome, type of initiative (pricing system, performance regulations, incentives, innovation […]
