About us

About GeoStratify

GeoStratify specializes in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Earth Observation. Our goal: make geospatial data easy to use, for better decisions.

We combine three activities: training, development of geospatial applications — with Strata, our open-source platform — and consulting. We work with local authorities, companies and international organizations.

GeoStratify is the consulting practice of Guillaume Rieu, an independent consultant. Depending on the project, it brings in independent experts in artificial intelligence and UX/UI.
