[OSGeo BC] Introduction

[Tyler Mitchell]

Hi from the Okanagan, also with a forestry GIS background here (Lakehead, Geography), welcome!
I'd love to hear how you are finding the learning experience you had while digging into open source geo. What worked what didn't, etc.

Hi all, 


I have just joined the mailing list and also edited the wiki page to list myself as a member, so I wanted to introduce myself. 

My name is Nick Hadaller, and I work as a training forestry technican with a consultant company based around northern Vancouver Island. Forestry was how I was introduced to GIS, and eventually QGIS, OSGeo, and the open source geospatial community and I have become fascinated with all of it. Although I am mostly self-taught with my tech skills, I am continuing my formal education in GIS, and have enrolled in the advanced diploma of GIS applications at VIU for Jan 2023.

The majority of my work is done with QGIS but I am always looking into other tools such as using R and libraries such as lidR to work with point clouds. I have recently begun to use python and pyqgis, plus a variety of command line tools (gdal, pdal) to script/automate repetitive tasks or come up with new ways to analyze or process the data I work with.



I am excited to be in this community with all of you,
