"Akshay is extremely talented, intelligent, and patient (with me). I've been lucky to find him." "Smart and talented expert. I am really happy with his work. Highly recommended. Thank you very much." With one of the few feedbacks I've received with few years of amazing experience, I believe I'm ready to take the challenge of a full-time freelancer. I'm Pro GIS developer with knowledge not only limited to development. I have professional skills in GIS, Web development, desktop tool development, Image Processing, GIS data creation and project management. If you're looking for someone who can not only develop amazing products but also manage your whole project, you're in right place. My Goal: To apply the knowledge of Geospatial Studies to real life problems and help in the development of decision making theories and tools to deal with the same. My Skills: ArcGIS API for Javascript / Web app builder, Javascript, Python, ArcObjects, ArcMap, Erdas Imagine, GIS data creation, Leaflet, Open source, Flex, Project Management, Mobile and web application development. Thanks for reading my profile, will love to work together and make a strong relationship.

I build production-grade data pipelines for location data, the kind that survive real scale, messy sources, and senior technical review. Most data engineers can't work in GIS, and most GIS specialists can't ship reliable pipelines. I do both, which is exactly what location-heavy projects need. If you're working with geographic data, satellite or aerial imagery, parcel and infrastructure records, point-of-interest datasets, anything tied to coordinates, I turn it into clean, queryable, automated systems instead of one-off scripts that break the moment the source changes. What I do: - Geospatial ETL pipelines (PostGIS, geopandas, rasterio) that ingest, clean, and structure spatial data at scale - Remote-sensing and imagery workflows, sourcing, tiling, and organizing aerial/satellite data across many locations - Web scraping and data extraction (Playwright, BeautifulSoup) with proper deduplication, rate-limit handling, and validation - Config-driven, schema-adaptive pipelines that adapt to new sources without a rewrite - Spatial APIs and mapping backends (FastAPI, PostgreSQL/PostGIS, Leaflet) - AI-connected spatial systems (MCP servers that expose PostGIS queries and geospatial tools to AI assistants) How I work: I diagnose the real bottleneck before writing code, I'm honest about tradeoffs (including when the hard part is data cost or source limits, not engineering), and I build for handoff, documented, maintainable, and yours. Proof: - Processed 6M+ US building permit records through a config-driven ETL pipeline (ConstructIQ) - Built a nationwide vendor directory of 4,400+ records via multi-phase scraping and enrichment (EventStarted) - Mapped fiber infrastructure across Lagos State in PostGIS (UDIGAP) - Built hybrid MCP servers exposing PostGIS and standalone geospatial tools to AI assistants, published to Glama (geo-mcp) - B.Sc. in Surveying & Geoinformatics — the geospatial fundamentals behind the engineering Tell me what your data looks like and what you need out of it, and I'll map the approach against your constraints before we talk price.

I engineer end-to-end spatial data pipelines and custom WebGIS platforms. My focus is on high-level geospatial architecture—solving structural bottlenecks to build repeatable workflows, clean spatial databases, and practical mapping systems that operational teams can actually use. Recent US project work includes address matching and territory planning for operational teams, public facing GIS maps for policy and exhibition use in Omaha, property and building height analysis in Los Angeles, and a browser based weather graphics platform built with MapLibre, radar layers, timeline controls, and export ready map views. International work includes site selection analysis in Germany, parcel and location intelligence workflows, PostGIS and QGIS topology cleanup, UK air quality grid matching, raster processing, and WebGIS tools built with MapLibre, Google Maps API, AWS, and spatial databases. I can support projects involving GIS analysis, WebGIS dashboards, PostGIS workflows, raster and remote sensing analysis, automated geospatial pipelines, and custom mapping tools. If you need a one time analysis, a repeatable GIS workflow, or a full WebGIS prototype, I can take the project from raw data to final deliverable with a clear technical process.
