GIS Data Analyst || Technical Writer

Hi, I'm Leo. A Geomatician and Data Analyst who loves unfolding the metrics of daily human activities. I recently started a YouTube channel where I share explainer videos on GIS analytical processes. And here I am, starting out a blog for the same purpose. I'm currently working on adding a host of python libraries to my stack, and I'd be sure to update you as I do. When I'm not writing codes or crunching numbers to inform Geospatial decisions, you'd find me writing texts on how exactly you can do that. Yes, a Technical Writer. Here's my Stack: SQL {PostgreSQL, MySQL} Python {NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Seaborn} GIS Applications \[QGIS, ArcGIS, Google Earth Pro, AutoCAD\]
