GIS Simplified
I am a GIS professional with more than 20 years of progressive experience.
I started my career as a software developer. During my early days, I use to do programming on ESRI ArcInfo software. After that ESRI had launched ArcView 3.x with Avenue as a programming language and then ArcGIS with ArcObjects as a base for application development. I kept on learning various programming language in line with upcoming technologies. I have managed large scale GIS and IT projects for Government and Corporates organizations.
Apart from a software developer, I am a coach and a tutor by heart. I am associated with reputed university of India for designing syllabus for their certificate, diploma and master’s course in GIS. I have conducted many train-the-trainer program and developed faculties who are now conducting GIS courses.
My industrial exposure and academic experience shall help you in getting most out of your investment in courses.
