Geospatial analyst and land surveyor specializing in remote sensing and GIS.
What I'm looking for
I am a Geospatial and Remote Sensing Specialist with hands-on experience in surveying, GIS, cartography, photogrammetry, and spatial data management, with work across government and private sectors. I deliver accurate survey plans, thematic maps, and geospatial solutions that support land administration and infrastructure planning.
My technical toolkit includes GNSS/RTK, Total Station, ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, ENVI, Agisoft, AutoCAD/Civil 3D, PostgreSQL/PostGIS, Python, GeoServer, JavaScript, and Google Earth Engine, which I apply to drone mapping, utility mapping, and web GIS development. I have built a secure geoportal for survey QA and real-time reporting and led photogrammetry projects for environmental monitoring.
I am passionate about using geospatial technologies to support smart cities, land management, and evidence-based decision-making, and I bring a record of workflow automation, stakeholder training, and delivering solutions aligned with national standards and digital-economy initiatives.
