Internships
Decisive Analytics Cooperation (DAC)
Summer 2019
​
During the Summer of 2019 I interned at Decisive Analytics Cooperation (DAC), now a part of Whitney, Bradley and Brown (WBB). The details of the internship are highlighted below.
​
-
Software Engineering Internship
​
-
DAC was developing machine learning techniques to automatically segment satellite imagery, identify and label terrain features, and detect changes over time for the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA).
​
-
I worked with DAC’s lead engineer to develop post-processing algorithms to improve the results of the unsupervised deep learning image segmentation algorithm.
​
-
I participated in team meetings to understand requirements and develop software design.
​
-
I developed Python algorithms utilizing scientific and geospatial libraries to identify and eliminate erroneous segmentations.
​
-
I developed a library of standard polygon manipulation algorithms that are now part of the DAC codebase.
​
-
I collaborated with DAC engineers to optimize software.
​
-
Software was delivered to the NGA customer with DAC’s August 2019 software delivery package.
