Bio
Brian Isbell
Throughout my 13+ years in the geospatial discipline, I have seldom come across experts as well-versed as Chuck when it comes to extensive knowledge regarding the diversity of tools/applications and ways to support customer endeavors via analytics, business intelligence (BI). During our tenure together at Nearmap, one member of the leadership team mentioned to me early on, "When you work with Chuck, you'll see what I mean...Chuck is magical." This holds extremely true, as evidenced by his track record of successes and promotions internally. Chuck is not only an asset to his employer, he is just as much deemed "mission critical" by many, many customers. There is no project too complex for Chuck and his team to single-handedly conquer, including but not limited to: machine learning, unique API integrations with native/in-house applications, customized webinars, and beyond. Chuck Dostal is the internal node linking so many business units together for successful communication and collaboration. Nearly any product enhancement, enterprise customer engagement, or client evaluation touches Chuck’s team at multiple points throughout the process. His team is a backbone that is integral to Nearmap’s mission statement. Having worked with many elite geographers and cartographers, including those from institutions such as University of Madison-Wisconsin and The National Geographic Society, Chuck stands out at the top consistently. He is revered internally at Nearmap to help address some of the most complex customer projects/programs. If you have seen his design work visualizing business intelligence data in new geographical ways, you will understand what I mean by "Chuck's Magic." Even as an expert, there is still much to be learned and adapted from Chuck's diverse technical acumen. There are few who rank in my opinion as high as he does, including professors and peers who have dedicated their entire lives to geographical pursuits. I recommend Chuck without hesitation to any customer or organization that has the privilege of working with him to solve even the most complex of projects/programs. He is an asset to every team/business unit he touches. I anticipate an exceptional trajectory for Chuck and his team over the coming years.

Greatest boss I ever had. Extremely capable, communicative, and hardworking. It was great working with the man.
