Summary
Ben Pintor is a lead server administrator and GIS manager with nine years of experience building and operating hybrid open source and proprietary geospatial systems for institutions like the Asian Development Bank. He combines hands-on server and WebGIS administration with capacity building—designing and delivering training, tooling, and community-led open data projects across government, NGOs, and international development. As a founder and CTO of multiple initiatives, he focuses on open source geospatial stacks (GeoNode, PostGIS, QGIS) and pragmatic automation that has sped processing workflows (e.g., solar energy modeling) by measurable margins. A published geomatics master whose thesis applied spatial analysis to Philippine basketball, Ben blends technical depth, pedagogy, and advocacy to advance data literacy and civic technology. He maintains an active public presence sharing resources and tutorials, and frequently translates complex spatial problems into accessible, production-ready solutions.
