I do a lot of things, but I currently 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’m an active contributor on GitHub. These days I work mostly on WebODM (founder and maintainer), ODM (co-founder and maintainer) and LibreTranslate (founder).

I live in sunny St. Petersburg, Florida, I enjoy windsurfing, beach volleyball and tennis. Get in touch if you like my work or want to discuss ideas.
