@aniverzivolli
Civil engineer and GIS specialist at Institute of Geography and Military Infrastructure, building KodiAI and automating engineering data workflows with Python.
What I'm looking for
At the Institute of Geography and Military Infrastructure, I provide technical support and participate in military building and infrastructure projects while following up the digital military mapping process. I also continue building software and data projects, including KodiAI.
I built and published four live KodiAI demos from a private Next.js, TypeScript, and Supabase Postgres application. Its KTP Search retrieves clauses from Albania's technical design codes and generates cited answers; I improved answer accuracy from 50–60% to over 85% by changing one pipeline step at a time.
At UTS-01, I built Python/ArcPy and Excel VBA automation for municipal planning workflows across four Global Local Plan projects, processing land-use and road-network features. I also built WebGIS applications and contributed to Albania's national dumpsite risk mitigation study, which became part of the Integrated Solid Waste Management National Strategy.
