Rob van Loon

Open Source Developer and GEO expert @ Ordina

With a background in experimental physics (PhD), I have always been interested in investigating how things work and what they can create. When I entered the field of GIS (Geographical Information System), my investigative mindset remained and it is now focused on coding and creating GEO applications and data analysis.

I have a broad work experience with GIS software and my skills includes system architecture, code implementation, and system testing and control till finished product. I can work with web-based applications and data processing, as well as simple scripts and tools.
A combination of postgresql and python is my systems of choice, however I am happy to use other tools if they are a better suited to fit the problem at hand. I work well in a team as both a lead developer, mentor and team developer.
