Where data meets sustainability

Yevhen is passionate about using data to make a real impact. He transformed Calgary's Open Data Portal into a tool that helps people explore the city's environmental story. Using the Community Boundaries and Land Use District datasets, he built new systems that turned complex information into practical insights. These insights are easy for City staff and residents to understand.

Driven by curiosity and creativity, Yevhen explored how environmental conditions vary across Calgary neighbourhoods. His work found patterns that help explain the link between urban development and sustainability. One of his key projects looked at summer temperatures across Calgary. It showed how land use and community features can affect local heat conditions. By bringing together different datasets, he created visual tools and analysis tools that make environmental information easier to access and understand.

Yevhen stands out because he connects data to real-world results. His work does more than create charts and maps. It helps Calgarians better understand their communities. It also supports informed decisions about sustainability, climate resilience and future growth.

Through innovation, technical expertise and a strong desire to contribute to The City, Yevhen has shown how open data can support smarter thinking and stronger communities. His projects show the value of turning data into stories, insights and actions. These actions help build a greener, more resilient and more livable Calgary for generations to come.
