Dr Peter Fretwell  is a senior geographic and remote sensing scientist in the Mapping and Geographic Information Centre (MAGIC) at BAS. He leads the Wildlife From Space group and has over the past decade published a number of ground-breaking remote sensing and GIS studies that have increase our understanding of a range of Polar environments.

He has worked at BAS since January 2002 and spent the first seven year of that career in a mainly cartographic role. That changed in 2009, when by chance he discovered that he could detect emperor penguins using satellite imagery. A number of high-profile science papers followed which changed his role to focus primarily on remote sensing and GIS. Two primary strands of research include the Bedmap project and the detection, counting and understanding polar predators from satellite imagery, from which he has published a number of ground breaking,  influential and novel studies. This focus led to the creation of the Wildlife From Space Group in 2022, which Peter managers, which now has multiple ERCS and funded projects looking at a range of wildlife including emperor penguin, seals, walrus whales and flying seabirds.

In 2023 he received a prestigious Erskine Fellowship and is currently the chair of the SCAR Bedmap3 Action Group and the SOOS Censusing Animal Populations from Space (CAPS) group. He has published over a hundred papers and currently (2025) has a H index of 40.

He has also sat on a number of international steering committees and is a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society.

Research interests

My work currently involves geospatial analysis and applied remote sensing across a range of environmental fields. Recent emphasis has been on the use of very high resolution satellite imagery to count and study wildlife, and the construction of digital elevation models such as the Bedmap3 project which mapped the bed topography of Antarctica. Additionally my roll includes supporting BAS science and logistics with mapping and geospatial analysis and managing the BAS Wildlife from Space group.
