Glenn Kong
GIS Consultant
Esri Australia, Brisbane
While pursuing a Master's in Geographical Information Systems (GIS), Glenn won the 2024 Esri Young Scholar Award for his application of machine learning techniques to predict urban heat island (UHI) intensity across more than 200 global cities — a research project that earned him an internship with Esri Australia.
After an initial rotation program, he joined the ranks of Esri Australia's GIS consultants, drawing from both theory and practice to provide effective solutions.
With a holistic view of how GIS technology is applied across various business functions, Glenn works alongside multiple organisations to address their pressing geospatial challenges.
A life-long learner with a passion for geographical systems, Glenn continuously seeks opportunities to broaden his knowledge and make meaningful contributions to the spatial community.
