Transportation modeler and data geek. I tend to work in R, Cube Voyager, Python, Java, and occasionally in Biogeme. I am also the webmaster for a few conference and user group websites.
Location
Cincinnati, Ohio
Education
Bachelor of Urban Planning, Master Civil Engineering
I'm sort of a developer. I'm an engineer and urban planner by college degrees, but I've been doing programming in some way/shape/form since I was 7 (and wrote my first program on a Commodore 128 - 10 PRINT "HELLO WORLD" / 20 GOTO 10 :-D).
My job is part programming and part data geek. My team and I build and maintain a travel demand model, which is a system used to forecast transportation needs and conditions in the future. We use a mix of software/languages to do this - Cube Voyager (proprietary program) does some of this, and there's a lot that is in Java.
We primarily use R to work with data inputs and do analysis that ultimately goes into the model, and I've built a few websites using PHP and Javascript to display data and help us work with our data. I've also been working in Node.js quite a bit to develop a system to poll some permanent traffic counters as well as trying to improve the public's access to our data (I work for a government agency, so we share what we can).
I also homebrew beer and run.
