Hola! 👋 I'm Tama — physicist turned data scientist, building open tools for a greener planet

I run dataIngenio, a small independent data science practice from sunny Alicante, Spain. After starting out in experimental physics, I found my real calling somewhere between satellites and spreadsheets: helping people make sense of ecological, biodiversity, and geospatial data.

Most of my open work lives at that intersection:

• 🛰️ Open geospatial tooling: practical workflows around Sentinel-2 imagery, Global Forest Watch, and deforestation monitoring, including a free deforestation-check demo anyone can use
• 🌍 EU environmental compliance, demystified: open notes and tools that help small operators navigate regulations like the EUDR without a Big-Four budget
• 📊 Reproducible data science: Python/R/Julia utilities, analysis templates, and a public map of statistical and ML methods, so others can skip the trial-and-error I went through
• ✍️ Writing it all down: long-form, no-paywall case studies and guides on my blog dataIngenio because the best documentation is the kind you wish had existed when you started

Why sponsor?

I'm a freelancer, which means every hour spent on open tools and free writing is an hour not billed to a client. Sponsorship doesn't change what I build — it changes how much of it I can afford to give away. Your support directly funds:

• Keeping demos and datasets free and publicly hosted
• More open case studies instead of client-only work
• Maintenance, docs, and answering issues with actual care

If my tools or writing have saved you time — or if you just like the idea of independent, open environmental data work existing in the world — I'd be genuinely grateful for your support. And if you can't sponsor, a star, a share, or a "this helped me" message honestly makes my day. 🌱
