Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoshua Croff is a GIS analyst with 11 years’ experience translating complex spatial and policy questions into publication-quality maps and repeatable data products for regional planning and transportation agencies. Based in San Francisco, he has led cartographic training and data stewardship for high-profile regional initiatives like Plan Bay Area 2050 and the HCD APR, applying both open-source Python tooling (Pandas/Geopandas) and enterprise GIS stacks (ArcPy, ArcSDE, PostGIS). He routinely bridges technical and non-technical audiences—documenting requirements in Markdown, versioning work on GitHub, and turning messy, multi-source datasets into “golden” address, road, and POI layers through scalable ETL and database functions. His background spans public-sector planning, private-sector geodata curation at Uber, and full-stack web development training, giving him a rare mix of cartographic craft, data engineering discipline, and product-focused collaboration.
