Meet the Founder
Mike Sandoz
Senior Landman | GIS Developer | AI & Infrastructure Specialist
With nearly 20 years of comprehensive land management expertise, I've evolved from traditional landman services to cutting-edge geospatial technology and artificial intelligence solutions for the Oil & Gas and Mining industries.
I design and build custom Python tools for ArcGIS that automate complex workflows and create specialized mapping solutions for mining operations. My development work includes project mapping systems, spatial analysis tools, and data processing automation that significantly reduce project timelines while improving accuracy.
I bridge traditional land services with modern technology, combining decades of industry knowledge with programming skills and emerging AI capabilities to solve complex challenges and deliver competitive advantages to clients.
