Corridors & Coastlines:
Real-World GIS Applications

This portfolio showcases a series of applied GIS projects that analyze and map critical marine and coastal corridors. Through hazard and risk mapping, and subsea cable route planning, these projects demonstrate practical spatial analysis, environmental assessment, and real-world decision-support workflows.

Each map and dataset is designed to reflect the kind of analytical precision required for infrastructure planning, environmental protection, and coastal resilience.
