I am a Geospatial Data Scientist from Malaysia π²πΎ working remotely and thinking about where to go next! My background is in Geography, with a particular interest in Earth Observation using satellites π°οΈ, having done cool research on Antarctic ice dynamics during my PhD in Aotearoa/New Zealand π₯. Specifically, I work on applying Deep Learning methods to Remote Sensing datasets, keeping busy on the leading edge of data-driven research in the Earth Sciences.
These are some of the hats I wear:
- βοΈ Machine Learning Engineer in the GeoAI team at Development Seed
- π Core Developer of PyGMT: A Pythonic Interface to the Generic Mapping Tools
I'm currently:
- π¦ Learning Rust, and trying to get into the GeoRust ecosystem
- β―οΈ Developing a Python package called zen3geo for building Earth Observation and geospatial data pipelines
- π Making open source contributions to the Pytorch ecosystem and Pangeo community, all in the PyData world!
Want to connect?
- π» I'm open to building partnerships with folks working on open geospatial tools, specifically with a Remote Sensing focus, so reach out!
