Hello, I'm Seunghyeon Lee (UPWISE), a GIS instructor.
UPWISE.
Trusted by 1,000+ students — a QGIS expert instructor.
I teach spatial data analysis and visualization using QGIS, Python, and PostGIS. With clear explanations and hands-on examples that beginners can follow to the end, I build courses you can apply right away.
01 — ABOUT
About
Through GIS, I give data its spatial context and deliver that meaning in a form that can be put to use in the field.
I majored in GIS and remote sensing at the Graduate School of Environmental Studies, Seoul National University, combining research and teaching with spatial data.
My main teaching areas are QGIS basics & advanced analysis, map visualization, QGIS × Python automation, PostGIS large-scale queries, remote sensing analysis.
