Real estate & investors
Parcel dashboards, sales and assessor joins, and market-analysis maps to screen properties and neighborhoods.
About
Christopher Knight
GIS & Data Engineer · Founder, GeoKnight GIS · Jacksonville, Florida
I build tested spatial data pipelines, parcel databases and custom GIS web applications: interactive web maps, dashboards and map-based tools. GeoKnight GIS turns public and client data into parcel dashboards, market-analysis maps and enriched Florida parcel records for real estate investors, insurers and inspectors, and engineering firms and Esri users.
Before founding GeoKnight GIS I spent 23+ years building and validating authoritative spatial data, including as a GS-13 Geographer at the U.S. Army Geospatial Center, managing enterprise ArcGIS for 1,500+ users, and supporting NOAA hydrographic surveys. Today I work in Python, SQL, PostGIS, DuckDB and dbt, with automated geometry validation, deduplication and QC traceability.
How I work
- Accuracy first: every number traceable to its source.
- Transparency: every change logged, nothing applied silently.
- Respect for your data: kept private, never resold, deleted on request.
- Handoff: you own the deliverables and can rerun the work.
Markets
Insurers & inspectors
Florida parcels enriched with roof-permit dates and FEMA flood zones, delivered as estimates for screening. Not a roof inspection, flood determination or underwriting decision; public-record data is delivered as is, and records exempt from public disclosure are excluded.
Engineering & Esri users
GIS web app and data pipeline work as a subcontractor, delivered to your standards at a project rate.
