BlackShore is working hard on the Cerberus platform. Cerberus can be defined as an automated processing engine to translate any type of photographic satellite data into usable GIS data (Maps + Data Labels for AI) by harnessing the power of the crowd.In the form of an interactive computer game players get to process photographs where they have to mark interesting features like river deltas on Mars, the evolution of glaciers on Earth and so on. Cerberus as a game is equipped with an extensive learning experience in order to ready the players to do the job. Because of this Cerberus serves three important factors within the space business which are E-learning, Outreach and Crowdsourcing.Selection of projects:- Cerberus: Map a Disaster (first operation, award winning)- Cerberus: Evolution (3D, immersion, safety and defense)- Cerberus: Forest Falcon (introduction open data, 7 sub- projects)- Cerberus: Crowds & Machines (feasibility for AI data labelling)- Cerberus: Crowds & Machines 2 (scale up, 20 sub-projects food security EU)- Cerberus: Space in Africa (Impact mapping)also see http://www.blackshore.eu

For a few years, I have been granted to honor to act as a mentor in for various institutions such as the Copernicus Accelerator helping new initiatives using Copernicus (Earth Observation) data landing on Earth.What I noted is that being a mentor is giving me an incredible dose of energy and it allows me to see operational fields beyond my scope as being the director of BlackShore allowing the exploration of new interesting markets. Being able to help the mentees in discovering their direction, and sharing my own experiences allowing them to do better than I did and to sense their enthusiasm is something energizing giving me even more inspiration to stay working in this amazing area of work a while longer.

For Dotweb I manage various projects where design and webdevelopment is of the importance.

I got the role of product manager to create a first beta version of a new enterprise, Dosjr, an online personal life management platform, with Dotweb as the holder. Also we are doing research into translating the entire Dotweb software into a more competitive environment using Microsoft Blend as the design platform. Also I am doing various marketing tasks and minor product development projects for other customers combined with usability design. Secondary: I also had the opportunity to do some minor projects for Dotweb. At first I created a new look & feel for all company’s software in order to realize a visual link with the style of Windows Vista®. I first made the design of the new interface. Secondly I took this design to the technical specialists Dotweb has in hire where my new designs were implemented under my guidance.
