Sam Batzli - PhD

Senior Information Processing Consultant (aka Data Scientist)

Space Science & Engineering Center (SSEC)

University of Wisconsin-Madison

I am a geospatial data scientist with a background in land remote sensing and historical and cultural geography. At SSEC I develop techniques for access to land and atmospheric remote sensing information through GIS and internet mapping. My past work experience at the Smithsonian Institution with collections management and exhibit design helps inform my current work with data visualization, spatial databases, and interface design. I have a strong interest in the application of geospatial technologies, and I promote the integration of geospatial thinking with visualization in the higher education, governmental and commercial sectors.
