Hey there,

My name is Casey Slaught.

I make web-based geospatial applications.

I am passionate about building tools that help people make better decisions about ecosystems and natural resources.

👋 Intro


Hello, and thanks for visiting my personal website! I made this site to showcase the things I am interested in and hopefully serve as a reference for others who feel their path towards software development is weird or non-conventional.

As a software engineer, I'm interested in building intuitive geospatial tools for the web. I know from experience that aerial imagery and spatial data can be hugely beneficial, but many of the current tools out there are too complicated for non-technical users. I want to help make them more accessible.

Here are some of the technologies I regularly use: TypeScript, Python, GDAL, Mapbox, AWS
