About Nishad

I am a dynamic and motivated GIS professional with over 3 years of experience in geospatial data management and mapping technologies. Currently serving as a Team Lead and OS Operator at Wipro, I specialize in resolving complex map-related issues, including basemap accuracy, routing, navigation, and address corrections across platforms like Uber Maps, Google Maps, HERE Maps, TomTom, and OpenStreetMap (OSM). From my early role as a GIS Technician at the Kerala State Land Use Board to my current leadership position at Wipro, I’ve consistently demonstrated a passion for data accuracy and innovation. I have led initiatives in data management and was instrumental in forming foundational processes during the initial stages of project development—helping streamline operations and enhance data quality. In my current role, I mentor teams, manage critical defects, and deliver client-focused solutions while collaborating directly with clients and cross-functional stakeholders. My work is rooted in solving real-world data challenges and ensuring high-impact results. Recognized with multiple Star Performer Awards (H1 & Q3 2024), I bring a strong track record of managing large geospatial datasets, conducting advanced spatial analysis, and driving operational excellence. I remain passionate about helping organizations harness the power of GIS for smarter decision-making and continue to actively contribute to the GIS community and LinkedIn conversations.
