About me

I'm Ka Hei, a geoscientist with expertise in geospatial data, remote sensing, and climate applications. I hold a Master’s degree in Applied Earth Observation and Geoanalysis, and have hands-on experience across research, climate tech startups, and the insurance sector. I'm passionate about creating innovative solutions that harness data intelligence across complex systems. My work includes developing advanced models for a wide range of environmental challenges, from disaster response to carbon markets. I'm driven to contribute to cutting-edge projects that accelerate climate action through the power of open data.

Expertise

My journey began in 2019 in Australia, where I immersed myself in everything from satellite data analysis to sea level rise modeling. Today, I focus on building machine learning models, integrating geospatial data for hazard impact analysis, and developing data products that deliver actionable insights for climate adaptation. My toolkit includes modern technologies such as the PyTorch deep learning framework, GIS, and Google Earth Engine for cloud computing, while remaining firmly rooted in scientific computing and product development.
