Developing an Integrated Geo-Platform for Cultural Tourism and Heritage Management (Zuid-Veluwe, NL)
This professional internship project involved the end-to-end development of an integrated geospatial solution for regional development. Tasked with supporting the Zuid-Veluwe initiative, I was responsible for creating a central platform that makes the region's rich agro-heritage discoverable and actionable.
The solution combines advanced GIS analysis, web development, and cartographic design. I synthesized data from cadastral services, historical archives (AHN), and participatory workshops to model historical landscape features. Using ArcGIS Online, I then built a responsive StoryMap application that serves as the digital hub, featuring interactive maps, detailed narratives, and media. To drive real-world engagement, I analytically designed 12 cycling/walking routes—complete with distance, difficulty, and thematic highlights—and produced high-quality topographic and thematic maps for download.
This platform now serves multiple stakeholders: the municipality uses it for planning and education, local cooperatives use it for marketing, and tourists use it for exploration. It showcases my competency in managing a complex geo-data project from concept to delivery, with tangible outputs that serve both strategic policy goals and public engagement.

MGI WUR's Fieldwork Project
The project "Animal Occurrence Heatmap in Groenlo Area," undertaken as part of the course "Remote Sensing and GIS Integration (GRS60312)," focuses on mapping 12 different animal species within Groenlo, Netherlands, using a heatmap visualization. This application serves multiple purposes, catering to various stakeholders such as municipality Groenlo, scientists, and biologists. For the municipality, the heatmap provides critical spatial data on animal distribution for effective wildlife management. Scientists and biologists utilize the map for spatial analysis to support research and conservation efforts concerning these species.
Implementation involves the use of GPS handheld devices to collect data points in KML format, which are subsequently processed using Kernel Density estimation to generate a heatmap with distinct classes. This methodical approach ensures that the spatial representation of animal occurrences is both accurate and informative. Furthermore, the data derived from this visualization serves an additional purpose in the augmented reality game ZooGo. Integrated as a game function, it enhances player experience by notifying them of specific animal-rich areas as they explore the virtual environment, thereby blending real-world spatial data seamlessly into the gaming interface. This dual application underscores the versatility and practicality of GIS and remote sensing technologies in both scientific research and interactive entertainment contexts.
Traffic, Properti Price, and EV station Map in Delhi, India
The Traffic, Property Price, and EV station Map of Delhi, India, developed for the course "Data Science for Smart Environment (GRS35306)," integrates various data points crucial for urban analysis. It visualizes Delhi's traffic scores, property prices, and the density of EV charging stations on a postcode basis, using a color gradient where darker shades indicate higher values. This map serves multiple stakeholders: the Delhi Provincial Government can utilize traffic scores to formulate effective policies on private vehicle restrictions. Property developers benefit from insights into metropolitan areas highlighted by property prices, aiding strategic business decisions. Additionally, providers of EV charging services, electric vehicle users, and governmental bodies find value in identifying optimal locations for charging stations.
Implemented using ArcGIS, the map aggregates data sourced from TomTom, government websites, and other open sources. This ensures robustness in data visualization and analysis, supporting the initial goal of correlating air pollution with these urban parameters.
