Iโm Oforiwaa Pee, a transport-geography Ph.D. researcher and location-intelligence practitioner who loves turning messy spatial data into clear, actionable insights usinf spatial-causal inference.
-
๐ญ Currently working on: Evaluating the impact of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) systems using spatial-causal inference (spatial econometric methods), and applying location intelligence to inform strategic decisions in urban mobility and retail networks.
- A spatial Difference-in-Differences study measuring how Johannesburgโs Rea Vaya Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) reshaped travel behaviour and the socio-economic impacts on residents
- Location intelligence & strategy frameworks that help global brands (Nike) choose the right places to grow
-
๐ฑ Learning next: Advanced spatial econometrics (spatial-causal inference) in Python and GPU-accelerated raster analytics
-
๐ฏ Open to collaborate on: Research or projects involving spatial data analysis, mobility insights, transport policy evaluation, or location strategy.
- Applied transport-accessibility research that bridges academia and industry
- Location/Geospatial Intelligence, Map products and services for businesses and organisations
- Open-source geospatial tooling (esp. reproducible workflows & tidy data standards)
-
๐ค I could use help with:
- Efficiently publishing large spatial datasets to the cloud (tip me your favorite stack!)
- Visualizing complex spatial data workflows in reproducible ways and publishing impactful open-source geospatial projects.

โก Fun fact: Iโve collected over 100 awards, fellowships, and scholarshipsโbut my proudest achievement is still biking the Cape Town Cycle Tour in 40 km/h winds and hiking in Japan!
โGeography is destinyโbut data gives us the map.โ
