I have been a Company Director and UN Contractor since 2012.Selected Career Achievements:Created the first ever composite map of terrestrial broadband networks for the International Telecommunications Union (ITU). The map serves as a decision-making tool for alleviating choke-points across international terrestrial fibre-optic networks.Developed entire mapping technology stacks to host the ITU Transmission Map suite of products using best-of-breed technologies. Live since 2012, the mapping framework is updated monthly and contains over 2 million km of networks from over 400 operators worldwide.https://www.itu.int/en/ITU-D/Technology/Pages/InteractiveTransmissionMaps.aspxDeveloped the first ever global ‘slippy’ version of UNmap for the United Nations Geospatial Information Section and UNESCAP.
