From Hardware to Geospatial Software
Maxime Lenormand is an aerospace mechanical engineer turned geospatial data scientist, he is also relatively new to the earth observation world.
This is an episode about how Max ended up in Geo and why he decided to move from hardware to software. But it's also about having a sense of wonder about the work we are doing and not being afraid to ask questions and have an opinion.
