Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and geospatial analysis

Greetings! I am a geospatial analyst at Transport for London and I specialise in building and running Geographic Information Systems (GIS) through different technologies. As part of my specialisation, I teach and assist early and mid-career geographers with GIS, specifically how to retrieve and create data, run any type of geospatial analysis and interpret the results.

I work in both QGIS and ArcGIS environments and I would be more than happy to help with specific projects the students have in mind, if applicable. Otherwise, I have student-focused study programmes that provide the foundations as well as more advanced knowledge and skills.

Feel free to contact me for a chat!

Extra information

To work in GIS, we need a computer. Students can use their own. However, if they don't have one, we can go through it on my device.

About Me

I am Ovidiu "Ovi", I was born in Romania, grew up in Italy and obtained my BSc in Environmental Sciences at Brunel University London. Throughout my academic years, I helped different researchers with their duties, both in the literature and in the laboratory.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and data science were a big part of my studies and the roles I had. At TfL, I currently work in a variety of GIS-based teams who make efforts to maintain and improve the transport network within Greater London. This is demonstrating to be excellent experience, which is enriched by the great people within the organisation.

Alongside my main role, I have some connections with academics at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and the University of Zambia, with whom I carry out health-based scientific research on Africa.

I enjoy travelling, reading and playing chess, both casually and professionally. Feel free to contact me!

Private coding / programming lessons with python
Python is one of the best, if not the best, language to start learning programming. It is also one of the most widely used languages today, especially in cutting-edge areas such as machine learning. This popularity means that Python is constantly evolving. It offers a wide range of tools and libraries, which are free and very varied. As an aeronautical engineer, I like to share my knowledge and derive satisfaction from it by teaching and motivating others. I'm used to working with people of different ages. I believe in the importance of segmenting learning, visualizing progress, setting concrete goals and practicing regularly. Beyond these general principles, there is no magic rule or method. Some approaches work with some students but not with others. Adaptation to individual needs is therefore the main objective of private lessons. So I will do my best to find what motivates and helps my student.
