For the past eight years, Dr. Julia Wagemann has worked as an independent consultant, educator and community builder in the global geospatial and Earth Observation industry. Before that, she worked as a data scientist at the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts and the European Space Agency.

In 2023, she co-founded thriveGEO whose mission is to empower individuals and organisations to thrive with geospatial and Earth observation data through training and community.

In 2019, Julia initiated Women+ in Geospatial and has since been involved in transitioning it from a grassroots movement to an established social enterprise. By co-founding Women+ in Geospatial she follows her calling to make the geospatial community more diverse and equal. She currently serves as Director of the Women+ in Geospatial CIC.
