computer vision and geospatial engineer in the czech republic. mobile mapping, LiDAR, GeoAI. at CEDA Maps i turn street-level survey data (360° imagery, GNSS, LiDAR) into a map-ready inventory of traffic signs and road defects. i like the part where geospatial work stops being a notebook and starts being something that runs.
MSc geoinformatics at Palacký University Olomouc, on Erasmus+ at AUTh Thessaloniki until february 2027. open to computer vision and geospatial roles across europe after that, remote or Olomouc-shaped. the portfolio has case studies and a CV.
- roundabout-exit-detection is YOLOv8 + ByteTrack over 5 minutes of aerial footage of an intersection in Kopřivnice. 11 ground control points from the ČÚZK orthophoto give a homography with 0.51 m mean reprojection error, so the tracks come out as GeoPackage and GeoTIFF you can drop straight into QGIS: 142 trajectories, speeds, exit counts, an O/D matrix.
- medpz-geoai detects vehicles in four 10 cm/px orthophotos of Olomouc with YOLOv8-OBB and SAHI tiling, then joins them to 14,458 RÚIAN address points through Voronoi zones to get cars per resident, and clusters the leftovers with DBSCAN to find parking lots.
- park-accessibility-toolbox is my bachelor's thesis as an ArcGIS Pro toolbox: network dataset, walking isochrones, population within reach of a park, following the European Commission's "A short walk to the park?" methodology.
the CEDA Maps repos are private, so descriptors instead of code. the piece i'd show first: photogrammetric localization of traffic signs from a YOLO bbox and a GPS trajectory, around 400 commits since july 2026. position comes out as distance ⊕ bearing, the forward-facing camera is geometrically degenerate for depth, and off-axis observations are the only lever i could actually verify. LiDAR stays out of the estimate on purpose, it is the independent measuring stick. next to that: a clustering prototype that merges repeated road defect detections from several fleet vehicles into single road events, and the training set for a sign classifier (filtering, labeling, image quality scoring, duplicate removal across survey drives).
VečerkaPlus is the other half. late-night drinks and snacks delivery in Frýdek-Místek that i co-founded in april 2026: shop, operator admin and courier app, delivery zones and pricing from spatial analysis, 1,059 commits since march 2026. i also do the purchasing and run the couriers, which is a different kind of debugging.
my master's thesis compares cartographic output from ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Mistral and Grok against ordinary GIS workflows. private until it is defended. before CEDA i did remote sensing at SkyMaps Geomatics: soil productivity maps, GDAL orthophoto automation, NDVI statistics for fertilizer field trials. since 2023 i also keep olomouckymajales.cz and meetup.upol.cz alive through their traffic peaks.
