Dr. Danlin Yu

Founder of GeoIntel Works - professor of GIS and spatial data scientist

For two decades I've worked on one practical question with increasingly useful tools: why does the same policy, investment, exposure, or market opportunity produce different outcomes in different places?

GeoIntel Works brings that experience into focused commercial and planning decisions. Clients receive plain-language memos, maps, source notes, assumptions, limitations, and recommendations they can use before signing a lease, submitting a grant, presenting a client report, or relying on a spatial model.

20+ years in geography and spatial data science
Spatial econometrics and spatial-panel models
Bayesian spatial modelling, system dynamics, and spatial data mining
Applied across urban and regional development, public health, and environmental justice

How I work

Principles

Rigour over flash

Methods you can defend, with honest uncertainty.

Reproducible by default

Documented, re-runnable workflows.

Direct senior judgment

You work with the person making the map and writing the interpretation.
