Jakob Schnell

Jakob has been using OpenStreetMap for over 15 years and has been developing software for more than 10 years. Over the past 4 years, these two areas have increasingly overlapped through his work as a software developer at HeiGIT gGmbH. His focus lies on clear communication and process optimization – although his background in discrete optimization tends to get in the way from time to time.

He works as a lecturer and course instructor in both academic and non-academic settings.
