About
I have worked with location (often referred to as geospatial or geographic) tools, technologies and practitioners since the mid90s. Most recently involved in working with and guiding national governments on issues, such as open data and open standards through engagement with the UN and the World Bank. I lead stakeholder engagement and external relations at the Group on Earth Observations (GEO) located at the WMO offices in Geneva advocating open EO data.
My preference is to focus on the importance of people, the need to determine business value and explain how technology should only be used to help deliver against goals, not be the goal. I believe in freely sharing information and ideas...
