Environmental engineering and data
David Andrade
Environmental and Sanitary Engineer, UFSC
I combine environmental licensing, sanitation, public data, geospatial analysis and applied AI to make technical information clearer, more traceable and easier to use.
This site is both a professional portfolio and a working environmental data lab: real public sources, interactive maps, documented methods and honest limits.

Applied environmental competence
The common thread is simple: take scattered environmental information and turn it into something that can be checked, explained and used.
- Environmental licensing
- Reading regulation, license conditions and technical requirements with traceability and clear documentation.
- Environmental data
- Cleaning, combining and explaining public datasets through dashboards, maps and reproducible methods.
- Automation and AI
- Building practical workflows to extract information from documents and reduce repetitive technical work.
- GIS and territorial analysis
- Using spatial data to reveal environmental constraints, urban growth, sanitation gaps and risk areas.
Selected projects
These are live examples from the site. Most are in Portuguese because their sources, rules and public audience are Brazilian.
Environmental license extractor
AI-assisted pipeline that turns Brazilian environmental license PDFs into structured conditions and deadlines. It powers the real licences shown in the permits tool.

Open project
Property zoning lookup
Address lookup of what the Florianopolis Master Plan allows on a lot, with protected areas and assessed value, plus city maps of urban growth, sanitation and satellite versus cadastral coverage.

Opportunities, research and environmental data projects
I am open to entry-level and junior roles, research and collaboration conversations in environmental engineering, sanitation, licensing, GIS, data analysis and applied technology.
