Planning and prioritizing tasks for the GIS analysis team, communication with stackholders and managing the task inflow

Analysis and manipulation of spatial and non-spatial data using PostGIS / QGIS (routing, reporting, data visualization etc.) mainly regarding Germany-wide telecommunication data

I am focusing my research on location-based systems (LBS), especially in indoor environments. I am a member of the Intelligent Service Integration Lab (ISI-Lab), responsible for machine learning and DNN based indoor-outdoor transition detection using technologies such as TensorFlow and Keras.

I was responsible for developing the GIS infrastructure for the largest tree cadastres of Germany by using Open Source products. This includes: - Developing & administrating the PostGIS database - Creating QGIS and QField projects to analyze and import data efficiently - Providing the users of seven different branches with the necessary support in using the products (e.g. through preparing tutorials) and be the help desk for any questions regarding the system - Data analysis for reporting to head users

- (Web) GIS (openlayers, PostGIS, QGIS, ArcGIS etc.) - Remote Sensing (SAR, optical etc.) - Data Analysis - Geodesy Master thesis topic: "3D Indoor Navigation and Localization Based on a Descriptive Voxel Grid and a User generated Landmark Network"
