OSGeo Experience

Developing open source software is fun, to make sure it's being used is even more fun!

My last pieces of code (some small Mapserver contributions) date from somewhere around 2002. Since almost 3 years involved in the Dutch local chapter, since summer 2013 as chairman of the local board. Co-organizer of the 2013 "OSGeoNL dag" (the yearly dutch local meeting), with 125 participants. Always looking for opportunities to coöperate with other geo-spatial organisations, including governmental and commercial organisations.

After 10 years of working in software development & consultancy, I've bene working as public servant at the Ministry of Housing, Spatial Planing & the Environment (8 years) and at the municipality of The Hague (3 years). Since 2014 I work as asset engineer data at the drinking water supply company [PWN [1]]]

Small detail: Ten years ago I've been in the board of the Dutch ArcGIS user group for 5 years.
