I sit at the intersection of environmental science and geospatial engineering combining 9+ years of Earth system research with hands-on expertise in building production-grade GIS platforms, spatial data pipelines, and real-time environmental monitoring systems.
๐ Geospatial Development & Web GIS:
I design and deploy end-to-end geospatial solutions using industry-standard spatial infrastructure. My stack includes GeoServer and MapServer for OGC-compliant spatial services (WMS, WFS, WCS, WPS), ArcGIS Server / ArcGIS Enterprise with custom GP Services, and ArcGIS Online / Portal for enterprise deployments. On the frontend, I build dynamic, map-centric web applications using React.js and Node.js, integrating Leaflet, OpenLayers, ArcGIS JS API, and Mapbox GL JS to deliver polished, responsive interfaces. I consume and publish REST APIs and GeoJSON/OGC services fluently, and architect scalable spatial backends that connect databases (PostGIS, SDE), middleware, and live remote sensing feeds.
๐ฐ๏ธ Remote Sensing, GEE & Cloud Geospatial:
I am deeply proficient in Google Earth Engine (GEE) โ both the JavaScript and Python APIs โ for large-scale satellite analysis, custom indices, time series extraction, and asset export workflows. I have worked extensively with Sentinel-1/2, Landsat, MODIS, MISR, and CloudSat imagery for flood mapping, LULC change detection, vegetation analysis, and atmospheric retrievals. I also leverage GEE API services to feed live computed outputs directly into web dashboards and geoportals.
๐ก๏ธ Climate, Atmospheric Science & Air Quality
My research background spans climate forecasting, air quality assessment, and emissions analysis using model datasets including ERA5, MERRA-2, CAMS, and CHIRPS. I develop emission inventories, airshed-level management frameworks, hot-spot mapping workflows, and sector-specific energy demand forecasts. I have hands-on experience with ionospheric data, PM2.5 retrieval from aerosol constituents, and multi-variable atmospheric visualization pipelines.
Programming & Data Engineering
I code production-ready tools in Python, R, MATLAB, and JavaScript, with strong capabilities in spatial data mining, advanced visualization (Chart.js, Plotly, Matplotlib), and predictive modeling. I have a proven track record converting legacy Fortran, IDL, and Mathematica codebases into modern, maintainable Python frameworks โ a rare but highly valuable skill for organizations modernizing their scientific infrastructure.
Dashboards, Portals & Decision Support Systems
I deliver custom geospatial dashboards and monitoring portals โ from disaster management platforms and flood monitoring systems to air quality indices and renewable energy assessment tools โ using ArcGIS Dashboards, ArcGIS Experience Builder, Power BI, and bespoke React-based interfaces. Every solution is built with real operational users in mind: clean UI, live data integration, and meaningful spatial storytelling.
What sets me apart is the rare combination of scientific rigor and engineering execution. I don't just analyze environmental data โ I build the systems that make that analysis accessible, scalable, and actionable for decision-makers on the ground.
