• Using ArcGIS and Modelbuilder I created an automated model for processing monitoring data of released orangutans and inputting this data into the organization's GIS database, making the monthly reporting much more.
• With the use of Excel, ArcGIS and Modelbuilder I created a process for automatically importing orangutan rescue location data from updated spreadsheets into the GIS database in shapefile format.
• I created other maps on request, including rescue, monitoring, administrative and reforestation planning maps.
• I used a DJI Inspire 1 drone intensively to map rainforests, palm oil plantations and illegal logging sites to help IAR Indonesia's conservation and lobbying efforts, trying to save endangered orangutan populations.
• During my 3 weeks stay in IAR Indonesia's other centre on the island of Java, based on monitoring of wild and released slow lorises, I created a model to find potential habitat for them, taking into account different.

Albufeira, Portugal

• Using ArcGIS, I created dozens of distribution maps - spanning multiple field seasons - of different marine species found around the Southern coast of Portugal. The observed species were: common dolphin, bottlenose.
• Using the same datasets I created heatmaps, compared the distribution maps with the local bathymetry and calculated the average distance from shore for sightings of different species and in different years, to see if.
• I held a 1-day beginner's GIS course for marine biologists, regarding basic concepts in GIS, projections, coordinate systems, data types, data collection, examples of biological research using vector and raster GIS.

• Using Excel VBA and ArcGIS Modelbuilder I prepared humpback whale abundance survey and related transect based hydroacoustic sonar data, created interpolated surfaces and rasters, accounting for anisotropy and a number.
• Also using VBA, ArcMap and Modelbuilder I created 120 interpolated surfaces from hydroacoustic sonar data related to focal humpback whale surveys, overlayed them with the whale observations, creating maps showing the.
• Using the same methods I worked on focal patch survey data, creating similar outputs.
• I created a bathymetry map of the area surrounding Five Finger Lighthouse (mainly Frederick Sound and Chatham Strait) for a marine wayside interpretive panel for a cooperative project between Alaska Whale Foundation.

• With ArcGIS I cleaned 36 sections of seafloor point clouds gathered with side-scanning sonars, each consisting of more than 1 million points. Prepared this "underwater LiDAR" data for archaeological analysis by.
• Georeferenced building plans for the extension of F. D. Roosevelt International Airport, St. Eustatius, Caribbean Netherlands.
• Using high-resolution elevation models I created visibility maps for 15 known forts and batteries of the island with ArcGIS, TileMill and GIMP, making retrospective analysis of important historic events possible. Also.
• Created heatmaps showing the frequently used shipping routes for ships stopping at the island of St. Eustatius, using data gathered from 69 historical shipping logs, stored in the CLIWOCdatabase (Climatological.
