Even Rouault

I'm a software developer, living in France. Since 2006 I have been contributing to various software packages promoted by OSGeo, or closely related to it :

• GDAL/OGR - commiter and PSC member
• MapServer - commiter
• PROJ.4
• libgeotiff
• shapelib
• libtiff

My main contributions are directed to GDAL/OGR, whose I have been a PSC member since 2007. My domains of interest include :

• development and enhancement of raster and vector format drivers : GeoTIFF, GML, JPEG2000, WFS, Geospatial PDF, SpatiaLite, GPX, GeoRSS, ...
• new features,
• performance optimizations,
• maintenance of Java bindings,
• software quality improvements, especially increasing test coverage of its Python test suite
• looking after bug tracker and helping in trying to keep a reasonable open/closed ticket rate ;-) ,
• mailing list assistance,
• bringing in and mentoring new contributors.

I am occasionaly participating to threads on GeoRezo and Forum SIG francophone communities.

I am a OSGeo Charter Member since 2011.

I'm currently employed by Sagem Défense Sécurité (SAFRAN Group), where I have been working on software products building around GDAL and MapServer for their geospatial capabilities.
