@hammadawan
Geospatial data scientist specializing in AI-driven urban intelligence and infrastructure optimization.
What I'm looking for
I am an M.Sc. Geography graduate focused on Urban Intelligence and AI infrastructure, with hands-on experience building RAG pipelines, local LLMs, and automated geospatial models. I have applied these skills to projects such as Manhattan rooftop solar modeling, Karachi urban thermal analysis, and an AI-driven flood resilience dashboard for Valencia.
Certified by NVIDIA and Duke-area programs and skilled in geospatial toolkits (GeoPandas, OSMnx, QGIS) and AI/ML stacks (Vertex AI, OpenAI GPTs, MLOps), I combine spatial analysis with production-ready ML workflows to deliver actionable infrastructure and resilience solutions.
