Hello, and thanks for visiting Wikiloc!The goal of Wikiloc is to help you share and discover GPS tracks and waypoints from around the World in an easy wayJordi Ramot, founder
I started my professional career back in 1995 leading a GIS department in a regional government agency, later on I joined a private company specialized in LBS and Internet Mapping, moved to Vancouver (BC,Canada) in 2001 to collaborate with a leading company in GML (Geography Markup Language), returned to Spain and founded iogeo.com, a startup specialized in making geospatial information systems work together following OpenGeospatial standards. Currently I'm working full-time in Wikiloc. On the geek side, I like statically-typed languages like Java, dynamic languages like Python and Unix-like operating systems In 2006 I started to work on Wikiloc in my spare time and nowadays we're a growing community of thousands of outdoor enthusiasts sharing our best outdoor routes from anywhere around this beatiful planet. When not in the office I like to be in the mountains hiking, back-country skiing or mountain biking Montserrat Jordi
