Projects

Analytical systems for difficult landscapes.

Each project examines an interface: a place where hidden relationships become measurable through spatial methods, public data, and visualization.

RL-01 Live

Housing · Land Use · Implementation Geography

SB79 Impact Explorer

A spatial policy analysis platform examining how California Senate Bill 79 interacts with regional implementation, transit-oriented development, historic-resource constraints, vulnerability indicators, and housing equity.

Interface Studied
State housing mandate × regional implementation × local vulnerability
Methods
GIS, policy analysis, demographic overlays, GeoJSON APIs, interactive maps
Output
Public research site, station data table, implementation maps, methodology notes
Case Study Open App
RL-02 Live

Climate · Vegetation · Remote Sensing

CFP Anomaly Tracker

A live spatial research system for tracking climate, vegetation, smoke, and water-quality anomalies across the California Floristic Province by comparing current observations against seasonally and geographically specific historical baselines.

Interface Studied
Climate anomaly × vegetation response × baseline quality × environmental stress
Methods
PRISM climate data, CIMIS observations, Landsat indices, smoke and aquatic screening layers, Flask, Mapbox, GeoJSON APIs
Output
Interactive anomaly map, finalized observation status, spatial temperature anomaly layers, vegetation/moisture indicators, smoke and aquatic turbidity screening, CEQA air quality report
Case Study Open App
RL-03 Internal

Fire · Recovery · Landscape Trajectories

Post-Fire Recovery Pipeline

A remote-sensing pipeline for tracking post-fire vegetation recovery, spectral change, precipitation triggers, and recovery trajectories in disturbed landscapes.

Interface Studied
Disturbance × recovery × spectral trajectory
Methods
HLS Landsat/Sentinel-2, GEE batch exports, spectral unmixing, harmonic decomposition
Output
Internal research pipeline and exported GEE asset archive
