Jefferson Valencia Gómez

Jefferson oversees the governmental data platform "Agua de Honduras" and has over a decade of experience in spatially distributed hydrological modeling across Latin America and the Caribbean, and more recently he's been working on identifying suitable water sources in projects addressing water management under freshwater-limited conditions.
He studied Topographic Engineering at the Valle University, Colombia, with a specialization in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) at the University of Huelva, Spain, and a master's degree in Geospatial Technologies at the University of Münster, Germany. Recently he did his Research Fellowship in hydrological modeling and agriculture through the Norman E. Borlaug International Agricultural Science and Technology Fellowship Program. Currently, he works on his Ph.D. in the context of HydroCrowd.
His studies and work experience gave him a vast experience with spatial analysis, remote sensing, hydrological modeling, web application development, data science, and geostatistics, among others.
