WebGIS & Remote Sensing Developer | Interactive Maps, Satellite Imagery Analysis & Python Automation
Need an interactive web map, a spatial dashboard, or automation for your geospatial workflows? That's what I do.
I'm Abdul-Hanan, a GIS & Geospatial Developer. I turn raw spatial data , shapefiles, satellite imagery, GPS logs, messy CSVs into tools people actually use.
I build custom WebGIS dashboards with Leaflet.js, MapLibre, Mapbox GL, and Deck.gl for large datasets, design PostgreSQL/PostGIS databases with proper spatial indexing, and set up GeoServer for serving WMS/WFS layers with SLD styling and tile caching. On the automation side, I write Python/GDAL pipelines for batch geoprocessing, handle remote sensing tasks like NDVI and change detection, and build FastAPI backends that serve GeoJSON or vector tiles straight to your frontend. I also do routing and network analysis, and general data cleanup . fixing broken geometries, reprojecting CRS, merging messy datasets.
If you've got rough or messy spatial data and need it turned into something that actually runs, that's the gap I fill.
