About
An independent studio for data, AI & writing
Geospatial analysis, applied AI, and original writing — run by one person, so you work directly with whoever is doing the work.
Redwoods Spare
Founder of GeoIntel Works · two decades in geography & spatial data science
For two decades I've chased one question with steadily better tools: why does the same policy, investment, or exposure produce different outcomes in different places? GeoIntel Works is how I bring that work — and a few other things I make — directly to the people who need it.
The work ranges from one-off analyses and maps, to interactive dashboards, to private AI assistants served from my own hardware — and, when the analysis is done, original dark-fantasy fiction. Different crafts, same studio.
How I work
Principles
Rigour over flash
Methods you can defend — appropriate models, honest uncertainty, analysis that survives scrutiny.
Reproducible by default
Documented, re-runnable workflows. You get the result and the means to reproduce it.
Privacy-first AI
Self-hosted models on dedicated hardware, so your data never has to leave your control.
