Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolArjan Verkerk is a software developer with 15 years' experience specializing in raster processing and visualization for large geospatial datasets, currently building Python/GDAL-based systems at Nelen & Schuurmans. Trained as a physicist (MSc, University of Twente) and with a PhD background in solar cell production processes, he combines strong numerical and scientific instincts with practical engineering for efficient storage and fast access to time-varying elevation and rainfall rasters. His toolkit centers on Python, GDAL, NumPy and HDF5, and he has a track record of designing back-end solutions tailored for web delivery of big raster data. Earlier roles in Oracle/PLSQL development and signal processing research give him a breadth across databases, scientific computation and embedded algorithms. Colleagues know him for turning domain-specific scientific problems into performant, maintainable software rather than one-off analyses.
