Showcase

Agronica - Google Cloud Platform for Spatial Analysis
  • Utilized Google Earth Engine to develop Google Cloud functions for vegetative index calculations, GeoTIFF index prescriptions in GeoJSON, and time series data retrieval

  • Executed GIS algorithms like overlay analysis on GeoTIFF files using Google Earth Engine

  • Integrated visualization of GeoTIFF data into the company's GIS platform using Google Earth Engine, previously created with Google Maps and JavaScript SDK under Angular 2

Cloud-based Solution for CAP Monitoring
  • Project demonstrates a condition-based maintenance (CBM) system layout with code examples to effectively process Sentinel data for scrutinizing aid applications related to agricultural policies.

  • European Commission Joint Research Center has developed a cloud infrastructure solution for its CBM using exclusively open-source elements.

  • The developed CAP monitoring service is utilized by several EU member states including Denmark, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Germany, and France.

Geocoder
  • Specializes in profile writing for developers and optimizing profiles

  • Built tool on Python to extract WGS84 coordinates from Open Street Maps using Nominatim and GeoPy libraries

  • Suggested enhancements include implementing duplicate checks and incorporating an approximation for handling unknown addresses

Live EO
  • The tool generates a multi-band GeoTIFF with a 20m resolution for a Sentinel-2 level 2A tile from any TOI between 2020 and 2022.

  • The output is trimmed to match the provided AOI extent in .geojson format.

  • It includes a variety of post-processing images such as a multi-band .tif file, a natural color .tif file, a false-color .tif file, and an Scl .tif file that represents classifications based on the sentinel color scale.

Data Analyst Portfolio
  • Project focuses on enhancing the Data Analyst Portfolio through an end-to-end data analytics project.

  • Implementation of Git for efficient project management and Jupyter Notebook for presenting discoveries will be done.

  • Project aims at attaining proficiency in data analytics workflows.

GeoPandas Contributor
  • GeoPandas is a project aiming to add geographic data support into pandas objects, currently featuring GeoSeries and GeoDataFrame types as subclass of pandas.

  • GeoPandas operates on shapely geometric objects for geometric operations, supporting transformation of coordinate systems using the to_crs() method.

  • The contributor's work involved integrating methods from shapely into GeoSeries and GeoDataFrame.

Djangovet
  • Djangovet is a Django web application utilizing pre-built templates and a SQLite DB.

  • Djangovet includes custom-made models, views, forms, authentication, and logout functionalities.

  • The application is deployed and accessible via https://simoparmeg.pythonanywhere.com/admin/.

Djangodelights
  • Djangodelights is a Python/Django application for effective restaurant inventory management. Front-of-house users can view menus, manage customer orders while admins have extensive capabilities like modifying dishes, monitoring ingredient inventory, and analyzing profit/loss.

  • Two types of users are supported - 'front-of-house' and 'admin'. While both can view the menu and manage customer orders, only admins can modify the menu, handle stock, and analyze profits.

  • The application provides detailed food inventory features such as adjusting recipes, purchasing ingredients, editing stock quantities, and analyzing dish popularity, exclusively available for admin users.
