Geospatial scientist (PhD, Earth System & Geoinformation Science). I build EO pipelines and GeoAI models for drought, vegetation, and land-governance problems — fusing satellite, sensor, and atmospheric data into something you can act on. Google Earth Engine, Python (geopandas, rasterio), deep learning. Partner at AereoVistas. I post maps, model outputs, GEE tutorials, and open questions about reading the planet from space. #RemoteSensing #GIS #GeoAI #EarthObservation
