Open Source
consultancy
Software, science, community building
I am co-founder of mundialis, a geospatial analysis and remote sensing company in Bonn, Germany. I have been developing open source GIS software for more than 25 years – deeply rooted in the free and open source community.
My consulting offers include Open Source GIS development, geospatial and Earth observation data analysis, cloud computing, GIS application to invasive species research, climate change effects on biological systems, and research on vector-borne diseases.
I have been heavily involved in the Open Source GIS community for the past 25 years: I was on the board of OSGeo for several years (2006-2011) and I have been the Release Manager of GRASS GIS since 1997.
During my academic career I have co-authored numerous scientific papers, as well as some books and book chapters. Much of this material is available online.
Open source software is easy to use these days – but my workshops and tutorials will help you get even more effective. Tailored workshops: let me know your topic of interest!
