As a Civil 3D specialist focused on land development, I do more than just draw lines; I provide strategic engineering solutions that maximize lot yield while strictly adhering to local zoning laws and complex topographical constraints.
Holding official FEMA/EPA/NHI/AUTODESK C3D certifications, I incorporate critical feasibility analysis (due diligence) into every project—evaluating flood zones and wetlands, and ensuring regulatory risks are mitigated from the initial phase.
Key Competencies and Services:
• Subdivision Design and Lot Layouts
• Advanced AutoCAD Civil 3D Modeling (Corridors, Intersections, Cul-de-sacs)
• Site Planning and Feasibility Studies
• Feasibility/Risk Analysis (FEMA Flood Maps, Wetlands, Zoning Codes)
• Grading, Leveling, and Drainage Design
• Water and Sewer Infrastructure Coordination
From preliminary conceptual layouts to complex 3D surface generation and earthwork balancing, I deliver precise, construction-ready DWG/PDF packages that bridge the gap between digital design and the reality of the job site.

Hello to all,
I’m Shahbaz. I’ve been building indoor/outdoor navigation solutions since 2005. I specialize in turning CAD, PDFs, and images into clean, navigation-ready maps.
What I deliver:
Indoor Maps: Airports, malls, arenas, casinos, train stations, offices, museums, hospitals – built to IMDF/Apple Maps + AVF spec
Map Editing & Cartography: Geo-referenced, topology-clean, client style-guide ready
Raster → Vector: PDF/JPG/PNG → GeoJSON, KML/KMZ, Shapefile, SVG, CAD with attributes intact
CAD Conversion: DWG/DXF → user-friendly GIS formats for navigation apps
Tools: ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, AutoCAD, Google Earth, Adobe Illustrator, FME
Why work with me:
18+ years doing this for airports, malls, and hospitals worldwide
GIS-grade accuracy + fast turnaround
Competitive rates for bulk/floor plan projects
Full data privacy – your files are never shared or reused
If you have overflow digitization work or need IMDF for a navigation rollout, I can send a sample + accuracy report. Open to a quick 10-min chat next week?
Best regards,
Shahbaz

GIS/Geospatial Specialist: LiDAR, Point Cloud, CAD-to-GIS, and Automation
I turn raw spatial data (drone, satellite, LiDAR, or field survey) into accurate, client-ready GIS, CAD, and cartographic deliverables. My background spans SAR remote sensing research, agricultural GeoAI, and hands-on freelance delivery across terrain modelling, vegetation analysis, and geospatial automation, working long-term with engineering firms, researchers, and environmental teams who need reliability, not one-off gigs.
LiDAR & Point Cloud Processing
Point cloud georeferencing, classification, and cleanup in CloudCompare and QGIS. DTM/DSM/TIN surface generation, contour extraction, spot elevations, and breaklines are output to AutoCAD Civil 3D and GIS formats with full X, Y, Z accuracy and QA/QC at every step.
CAD-to-GIS & Cartography
Coordinate system transformation, georeferencing, and clean conversion between CAD and GIS formats (shapefile, GeoJSON, GeoPackage, and DWG). Print-ready cartography for reports and engineering use with proper labelling, symbology, and visual hierarchy plus ArcGIS Online and Leaflet/Mapbox web deployments.
Spatial Analysis & Environmental Mapping
Polygon digitising, spatial joins, buffer/setback analysis, and cadastral/parcel work. Vegetation classification and LULC/change detection using Sentinel-2, Landsat, and drone imagery. Comfortable interpreting aerial imagery against government spatial datasets.
GIS Automation
Python (GeoPandas, Rasterio, GDAL, and ArcPy) pipelines are built for repeatable, scalable workflows with results delivered in clean, client-ready Excel reports, not just raw output.
Tools: ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, AutoCAD Civil 3D, PostGIS, CloudCompare, Google Earth Engine, Python
I work independently, communicate clearly from scope to delivery, and treat accuracy – coordinate systems, classification quality, layer structure – as non-negotiable. Open to a paid trial to show fit before a longer engagement. Happy to share samples.
