Drought Resilience Self-Assessment Tool

Dept of Agriculture - Future Drought Fund

The Drought Resilience Self-Assessment Tool (DRSAT) is a national web platform built for the Australian Government's Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry under the Future Drought Fund. It helps farmers and agribusinesses understand their exposure to drought using satellite and climate data. I led a team of six engineers across an 18-month, multi-phase delivery, from initial funding through user trials to production deployment, owning the front-end architecture, testing strategy, CI/CD pipelines and blue-green deployment. At its core is a WebGL geospatial layer that renders satellite imagery and climate time-series, backed by a satellite-data anomaly-detection system I architected on AWS alongside climate scientists.

  • Lead team of six engineers during a one and a half years multi phase delivery, from project funding to trial user testing and deployment to production. Defined and implemented front end architecture decisions, testing methodologies, CI/CD pipelines, blue-green deployment strategy
  • Drove implementation of WebGL based geo spatial satellite data and climate data visualisation, global state management, rest APIs contracts definition and integration
  • Developed reusable, multi layered charts visualising climate and analytical extrapolation of satellite data on a time series
  • Liaised with Climate Scientists to extract logic required to deliver a satellite data anomaly detection system, to then architect it and implement it on AWS
