Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaul Taconet is a (geo-)data scientist and engineer with 10+ years of experience applying spatial data science to ecology, environmental legislation, and natural risk management. Currently a postdoc in health-ecology data science at IRD in Montpellier, he combines GIS, spatial analysis, PostGIS and geo-visualization development with strong experience building FAIR multidimensional geospatial data warehouses for fisheries and conservation. His background spans doctoral research on vector control in West Africa, operational deployments of georeferenced databases for French Southern Territories, and an early ESA project integrating R and PostGIS for satellite + in-situ analysis. Colleagues value his teamwork, teaching skills and clear technical writing, and he brings a consistent international adaptability from fieldwork to academic research. Not obvious at first glance: he has repeatedly bridged operational data services and academic biostatistics, turning domain-specific environmental requirements into reusable, interoperable data infrastructures.
