// about.me

Hello, I'm Priyanshu

I am a detail-oriented GIS Analyst, Geospatial Researcher, and academic co-author based in Metro Vancouver. I currently produce publication-quality maps and spatial visualizations for faculty-led geology research at Capilano University.

From complex overlay analysis to configuring survey-driven web platforms, I specialize in transforming raw geographic data into clear, decision-ready outputs. I adhere to rigorous QA/QC standards to ensure cartographic precision and data integrity.
