What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply GIS, remote sensing, Earth Observation, and environmental research skills to environmental monitoring, assessment, spatial analysis, and sustainability-focused projects.

I've processed 25+ satellite datasets and produced 20+ GIS maps at Avakaza Geoscience Research Technologies, supporting land-use, vegetation, and environmental analysis with ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, Google Earth Engine, and PostgreSQL.

My work combines GIS and remote sensing with environmental research: I built an automated urban vegetation monitoring workflow using Copernicus data, Rasterio, NumPy, and GeoPandas, and investigated phthalate ester contamination in Lagos Lagoon. I've also conducted bioassays and in-situ sampling of 80+ environmental samples, supported impact and risk assessments, and translated findings into scientific and technical reports.
