Lee Chapman

Professor Lee Chapman has over 25 years of experience in the research and development of products for the winter road maintenance industry. This has culminated in two university spin-out companies, both acquired by US-based organisations that went on to market the products worldwide (i.e. route-based forecasting and wintersense IoT sensing).

Away from winter road maintenance, Lee has been involved in all four of the UK Climate Change Risk Assessments, focussing on infrastructure impacts. Lee also currently holds a joint chair with the UK Met Office, is a recent fellow of the Alan Turing Institute and is a past president / current secretary of the Standing International Road Weather Commission (SIRWEC).
