Tony Cannistra, Ph.D.

Weather and Spatial Data Engineer – OpenSnow
Owner – Cascade Cartographics
My current work focuses on building highly performant spatial and meteorological data processing and delivery systems for a leading mountain weather forecasting company, OpenSnow. I also provide geospatial analytics consulting and cartography services via Cascade Cartographics.
I enjoy scientific research at the myriad intersections of ecology, climate change, earth science, social science, and public policy. (Google Scholar)
Time away from my desk is most often spent on trails or snow in Washington or Colorado. In addition, I try to stay involved in outdoor education, with a recent focus on avalanche safety education. (NWAC)
