Senior🎓
Top SchoolAmy Lang is a GIS technical expert with over 15 years applying geospatial technology to public health, emergency response, environmental planning, and the built environment. Based in Georgia, she serves as a senior analyst for CDC’s Geospatial Research and Analysis Services Program (GRASP), supporting the Emergency Operations Center and ATSDR while embedding with WHO/GOARN response teams worldwide. She has led open-source tooling projects—ArcGIS Pro SITREP Toolbox and a Go.Data QGIS plugin—that streamline outbreak case/contact mapping, and has secured over $1.5M in project funding through targeted proposals. A frequent deployer to global responses (Ebola, Polio, Zika), Amy combines technical leadership, training, and project management to translate field needs into reproducible GIS products. Her background in city planning and business gives her a rare mix of spatial analysis, stakeholder coordination, and practical productization skills. Notably, she bridges CDC operations and international partners by building accessible tools that lower the barrier for outbreak data visualization and analysis.
