Professional skills
My job has been focused primarily on the subsurface mapping and 3-D geological modelling resulting in the concept and implementation of digital version of the spatial model of geological structure of Poland - from 6000 m to 500 m b.s.l. (2003-2005) and other numerous 3-D geological models developed in Academia (Poland, USA) in the E&P industry (the Netherlands) and recently in the Polish Geological Institute. My another major field of work is visualization of geological data and structures. I developed the first interactive 3D geological web-viewer in Europe (2007). It happens to me sometimes to get away from the desktop computer and work in the field on geological mapping (Antarctica, Peru, Romania, Turkey).
