Our GIS team includes a group of enthusiastic consultants who can work with you to integrate GIS into your various projects and learning activities. Some of the aspects that you can discuss during your consultation are:
I can help you with:
Aslan is a Master’s student at the Yale School of Environment. Her current research focuses on integrating various satellite products to track the interaction between climate change, urban development, and urban forests.
Aslan has rich experience in acquiring, processing, and analyzing satellite products using Google Earth Engine and ENVI. She also has expertise in managing UAV and ROV photogrammetry databases with Agisoft. In addition, she has approximately four years of experience working with GIS software and geospatial data analysis using Python and R. She is experienced in processing audible bioacoustics data using Raven Pro, Adobe Audition, and BirdNet.

Miriam Olivares is the Head of Geospatial Support Services at Yale University Library and Yale Center for Geospatial Solutions. With over 20 years of geospatial experience, she coordinates geospatial support services in higher education. At Yale, and previously at Texas A&M University, she connects experts and teaches and consults GIS, thus enabling others’ geospatial power to promote teaching and cutting-edge research. She was featured in the book Women and GIS: Mapping their Stories, has published peer-reviewed journal articles and book chapters, has participated in binational and international GIS panels, and collaborated in projects based in the United States, Mexico, Australia, Central America, and Somalia. Her collaborations include interdisciplinary research concerning GIScience, crime analysis, natural hazards, marine conservation, and public health among other subjects. Miriam serves as a member of the board of review for the Leventhal Map & Education Center at the Boston Public Library, and a member of the Advisory Board of the Academic Network of the United Nations initiative on Global Geospatial Information Management (UN-GGIM): Americas; member of the State of Connecticut GIO’s GIS Strategic Plan Workgroup and a member of the GIS Clearinghouse Workgroup. Additionally, she is the co-founder and international chair of GIS LATAM and a fellow of the Yale Timothy Dwight College. Previously, Miriam served as a director of the board for the University Consortium for Geographic Information Science and the New Haven-based Junta for Progressive Action. She also co-chaired Yale Women in Tech.
I can help you with:
Jacob is a PhD student at the Yale School of the Environment. His research involves using remote sensing and field techniques to study interactions between forests and vines occupying the forest canopy.
Jacob has over six years of experience with ArcGIS software and using R for GIS. He has extensive experience in using ENVI, Agisoft, and Google Earth Engine for acquiring, processing, and analyzing satellite, aerial, and UAV imagery, processing and analyzing LiDAR and photogrammetry data, and working with various products derived from imagery.
Dr. Kelly is a lecturer in GIS at the School of Public Health and a recent graduate of the School of the Environment. Jill has taught full-semester GIS courses at Harvard for four years and at Yale for two. She has designed and led workshops on QGIS, ModelBuilder, python, GIS for land use planning, and Google Earth Engine. She has experience with a wide diversity of datasets and GIS analysis, from boreal forest biomass to COVID-19 statistics, from nuclear waste storage to the public toilets of Australia. Her particular interests are the statistical effects of areal aggregation and GIS ethics. Jill also specializes in creative solutions to tricky technical problems.
