My name is Zeke Krautwurst and I am interested in participating in GSoC this summer through GRASS GIS. I have been in contact with developers Vashek Petras and Anna Petrasova at NCSU. Vashek recommended that I reach out to the broader dev community as well,
potentially to find a lead mentor.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

As part of my Master of Geospatial Information Science and Technology coursework at NCSU, I am working on a few projects using Python, PostgreSQL, and database development that I think will apply to the needs of the </span><a href="https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/GSoC/2017#GRASSGISLocationscreatedfrompublicdata" target="_blank"><i><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:9.5pt">GRASS

Through April, I will be creating a GUI and Python scripts to convert multiple formats of publicly available microbiome data into a standardized geospatial format. I also hope to create a normalized PostgreSQL database that accommodates the scripts, the microbiome
data, and associated metadata which could all be deployed through a web-based framework.<br>
<br>
I want to use GRASS GIS for both of those assignments in place of ArcMap and I think that completing those projects will give me the experience I need to be useful to the GRASS GIS project over the summer. Additionally, I am looking to develop and complete
my MGIST capstone project this coming Fall and I would be happy to continue this work through graduation in Dec 2017.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
