## About

```text
At ENOWA Water, I designed and enhanced datasets for water networks and flood mapping, and led a data-enrichment program for NEOM’s Water SDE database. I also developed Python/ArcPy workflows for spatial validation and built Utility Network Models.

At Public Works Authority ‘Ashghal’, I developed and maintained the ArcSDE Drainage Asset Database and created Model Builder tools for drainage-network editing and CAD/GIS conversion. Earlier, at the Geological Survey of Ireland, I supported the Groundwater Protection Scheme and produced the GSI Groundwater web-map.
