GIS & Climate Risk Expert | Remote Sensing | 15+ Years
Most spatial data projects fail at the same point: the data is there, but no one can turn it into a decision. That's the gap I've spent 15 years closing from Thailand's national space agency to US precision agriculture to live climate risk platforms serving Southeast Asia. If your project involves any of these, I can help immediately: 🛰️ Remote Sensing & Satellite Imagery I spent years at Ceres Imaging (Oakland, CA) georeferencing large-volume VNIR and thermal aerial imagery for precision agriculture, quality control, R&D, and spatial analysis at production scale. If your project involves satellite or aerial data that needs processing, analysis, or interpretation, this is work I've done at high volume. 🌍 Climate & Environmental Risk I built GlobMaps from scratch a live climate risk intelligence platform integrating ERA5, SEAS5, NASA FIRMS, and GloFAS data into drought, flood, and wildfire scoring APIs for Southeast Asia. I designed the data pipelines, the index methodology, and the full platform alone. Clients in insurance, finance, and agriculture use it to make risk decisions today. 📍 Geospatial Data & Navigation Currently supporting SafeGraph with geospatial data acquisition and address mapping for urban navigation projects across Thailand, Vietnam, Greece, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan. If you need accurate, structured location data for a specific country or region, this is active work. 🏠 Real Estate & Property Intelligence 9+ years supporting Bid4Assets with GIS data for US property auctions, parcel research, spatial data organization, county-level records, and due diligence across California, Pennsylvania, and more. Also currently supporting Community Investment & Development LLC with property research and parcel verification. 🗺️ Government & Large-Scale GIS I started my career as a Geo-Informatics Scientist at GISTDA ,Thailand's national space technology agency where I managed agricultural GIS databases, mapped rice mortgage schemes across all 77 provinces for the Department of Agriculture Extension, and developed GIS systems for government infrastructure projects. If your project needs that level of rigor, I understand what it takes. What you actually get: ✔ Spatial analysis that connects to real decisions — not just maps ✔ Experience across government, agriculture, real estate, and climate tech ✔ 15+ years of GIS work across the US, Europe, and Asia ✔ A founder who has built production geospatial systems end-to-end — I understand your technical requirements, not just the data side Right fit if you need: ⦿ GIS data processing, georeferencing, or spatial analysis ⦿ Climate, flood, or environmental risk assessment ⦿ Remote sensing or satellite imagery work ⦿ Property or parcel research with spatial context ⦿ Geospatial consulting for navigation or mapping products Send me your project scope. I'll tell you within 24 hours whether I'm the right fit and exactly how I'd approach it.
