Title: Geospatial Backend Developer Needed for Google Earth Engine Integration Project Description: We have built an interactive web application prototype that serves as a powerful dashboard for geospatial analysis. The frontend is built with Next.js and React, and it currently simulates the display of various satellite imagery layers (e.g., NDVI, Landsat, Sentinel-2) using mock data and static tile URLs. The goal of this project is to replace these mock integrations with a live, dynamic backend service. We need an experienced developer to build the core data pipeline that will connect our application to real satellite imagery APIs, with the initial focus on Google Earth Engine, and later Planet and Blacksky imagery. This is the first and most critical phase of moving our application from a prototype to a production-ready tool. Key Responsibilities: 1. Develop a Serverless API: Design, build, and deploy a robust and scalable serverless API on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), using either Google Cloud Functions or Google Cloud Run. 2. Integrate with Google Earth Engine (GEE): This is the core task. The API you build will receive requests from
