Hi, my name is Pete Coventry and I'm a GIS Professional with over 22 years experience in the GIS/Geospatial fields in both public and private sectors. Of my 22 years experience, 10 years have been at a County Assessor's Office where I was a GIS Specialist. I focused on parcel level analysis pertaining to legal descriptions, ownership, property valuations and data mining. I'm fluent in ESRI ArcMap 10x, ArcGIS Pro 2x, ArcGIS Online, QGIS 3x, Umap and Mapbox mapping platforms and python scripting. When not at my desk, I'm a FAA Certified Drone Pilot flying a DJI Mavic 2 Pro to cover a variety of aerial done photography. I'm using Lightroom, Photoshop, Hugin, and DJI GO 4 software. I have a Master's Degree and a Graduate Certificate both in GIS. I'm actively involved in several geospatial professional groups, presented my work at several geospatial conferences and continue to learn in this ever growing field. I'm a firm believer in finding the best solution, whether it's Open Source or proprietary mapping software. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Thanks, Pete

I’m a GIS Analyst and Geologist with end-to-end experience in spatial data workflows—from field data collection to advanced geospatial analysis and cartographic deliverables. I work extensively with ArcGIS Pro, GPS/GNSS data, remote sensing, SQL databases, and spatial statistics to support land evaluation, resource targeting, and market research. My diverse background—spanning mineral exploration, spatial market analysis, and field logistics—allows me to approach complex geospatial problems from multiple angles, blending technical, analytical, and real-world experience to find effective solutions. I’ve developed access and land ownership maps, conducted proximity and density analyses, modeled spatial trends using demographic and elevation data, and integrated geologic, environmental, and socioeconomic datasets to inform strategic decisions. My work often involves georeferencing historical maps, digitizing legacy datasets, and managing multi-source data in enterprise geodatabases. Whether supporting permitting efforts, analyzing market patterns by ZIP code, or building feature-rich maps for stakeholders, I combine strong technical skills with a practical understanding of real-world logistics. I'm experienced with spatial statistics, raster processing, cartographic design, and converting field-collected data into analysis-ready outputs that directly support operational goals. Clients turn to me for clean, reliable GIS deliverables and a streamlined workflow that bridges the gap between data and actionable insight.
