Kashan Muneer

GIS Developer, Team Lead, Technical Consultant & Project Coordinator. With 5+ years of experience, I sit at the intersection of hands-on GIS/technical development and project leadership building the tools and leading the teams that use them. I currently lead a team of GIS staff at PDMA Sindh (Provincial Disaster Management Authority), where I've driven automation initiatives that cut processing time by up to 70%, now adopted organization-wide. What I do: - Build GIS tools & platforms developer of Satelview, an in-house satellite data processing and GIS workflow platform, plus custom vector file converters, batch unit-conversion utilities, and a GIS-integrated complaint management system - Lead WebGIS & dashboard development, disaster risk mapping, early warning systems, fire safety audit mapping, and heatwave dashboards using ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, Leaflet, and ArcGIS Online - Manage teams end-to-end, task allocation, quality control, technical mentoring, and capacity building for GIS staff - Coordinate multi-agency projects, serving as the primary technical and coordination focal point with NDMA, CESVI, Weatherwalay, and other line department/ NGOs on joint disaster preparedness, risk reduction, and emergency response initiatives - Manage spatial data pipelines, from field survey collection through PostGIS/GeoServer integration to real-time decision-support systems Technical toolkit: ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, ERDAS Imagine, Python, JavaScript, Leaflet, GeoPandas, GDAL, PostgreSQL/PostGIS, Power BI, MS Project, Figma, Illustrator/Photoshop Background: M.Sc. in Space Science & Technology (CGPA 3.8), with certifications in Disaster Risk Reduction, GIS & Remote Sensing for M&E, and Multi-Hazard Public Health Risk Assessment. I've spent my career translating field data and remote sensing into decisions that matter, feeding directly into government contingency plans, situation reports, and policy documents. Whether the ask is "build a tool," "lead a team," or "coordinate five agencies before Monday," I bring both the technical depth to execute and the project discipline to deliver.
