This website gives quick insight into my work and I hope you can find all details that you need below. Otherwise, please don't hesitate to contact me at matthias@mohr.ws. I'd love to hear from you.
Work
Architecture
I wrote most of the openEO API and process specifications. I also contributed significant parts of the STAC and STAC API specifications, including a large number of extensions. Based on the STAC principles, I also authored most parts of the fiboa specification. From time to time, I also contributed to some of the OGC API standards. I'm fluent in writing specifications based on OpenAPI and JSON Schema.
Development
I love to code in JavaScript, Python, Java, PHP, and R. A small excerpt of open-source software that I'm maintaining:
- STAC Browser and several of its dependencies
- openEO Web Editor and several of its dependencies
- ol-stac
- stac-js
Please check my GitHub profile for a better overview of my open-source work. You can sponsor my work through GitHub sponsors, too.
Leadership & Consulting
The openEO Project Steering Committee has elected me as chair and I'm also member of the STAC Project Steeting Committee. I regularly guide companies to find the best way to adopt or improve their STAC and openEO stratagies. More information on contracting me...
