Hi! I’m the creator of WebODM, LibreTranslate and co-founder of OpenDroneMap. I work on open source full time and make a comfortable living with it.
I specialize in geospatial and drone software development, with a focus on computer vision and AI.
I’m an advocate of open source software as a commercially sustainable business model. I think it’s a direct expression of the Constructal Law.
I live in sunny St. Petersburg, Florida, I enjoy climbing, beach volleyball and tennis. Get in touch if you like my work or want to discuss ideas.
Join my Discord
A small (< 50 users) discord server for discussions about free and open source software, entrepreneurship and sustainable business models, currently invite only. Contact me for an invite.
