Hello, I'm Priyanshu

Associate of Science student at Capilano University, currently working as a Geospatial Research Assistant. I collaborate with faculty on academic projects, developing custom GIS maps and spatial visualizations for scholarly publications.

From overlay analysis and thematic mapping to survey-driven auto-updating maps, I love translating complex geographic concepts into clear, meaningful spatial representations. Exploring the intersection of GIS, cartography, and data science.
