4 years ago one of my clients wanted to "donate" a system for the local fire department to help them do a quick proximity search to find the fire hydrants and quickly choose the healthy one near the fire. And since it was charity and had a bunch of private data Google was not an option ($$$$), so I (just a full-stack developer back then) was like "listen I have no idea what is this GIS stuff, but I'll give it a try", after a quick research boom PostGIS, reading the docs and testing things, plus QGIS to visualize and to help understand it better 10/10! That was my unintentional "career" shift, thanks to PostGIS I'm now a senior dev at the largest food delivery company (local), specialized in GIS and realtime data driven systems using PostGIS everyday lol |
