Introduction: Venkat Kondepati – Principal GIS Architect Exploring Cloud + ArcGIS

[VenkataKondepati]

I’m Venkat Kondepati, a Principal GIS Solutions Architect with 24+ years of experience working across GIS, cloud platforms, and data engineering. I’ve led large-scale geospatial modernization efforts, integrated ArcGIS with enterprise systems like SAP and SCADA, and recently built cloud-native workflows using ArcGIS Pro, ArcPy, and AWS to solve 3D spatial problems at scale.

I’m passionate about automating geoprocessing, scaling GIS with cloud and parallel computing, and exploring integrations with platforms like Snowflake, Databricks, and ArcGIS Online.

Looking forward to learning from this community and sharing ideas — especially around advanced spatial analysis, API integrations, and optimizing geospatial workflows.

Let’s connect and build together!
