Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolIlya Boyandin is a Senior Data Visualization Engineer with 15 years of experience specializing in maps and mobility data, currently shaping Foursquare Studio and running his own geo-visualization consultancy, GeoVisually. He combines academic rigor—a PhD in Information Visualization—with hands-on product work across startups, media, transportation authorities and big tech, building tools that make flows and movement intelligible. Creator of the open tool FlowmapBlue, he has a sustained track record of turning origin-destination and transport data into accessible interactive stories and analytics. Comfortable across front-end UI, databases and spatial analysis, he has repeatedly bridged research and production to deliver practical visual systems used by clients and publishers. An understated strength is his ability to move between deep technical fixes (earlier work maintaining Sun’s Swing UI) and high-level design for public-facing visual narratives.
