About Henny

After completing my civil engineering studies, I started (in 1979) as a surveyor at an engineering firm. I was involved in various projects at home and abroad, including as a surveyoperator on the vessels Macoma, Ostrea & Taklift, which were involved in the construction of the Oosterschelde storm surge barrier, and as a surveyconsultant on a water pipeline project in Saudi Arabia.

Then I worked (from 1985 till 1998) for three different software companies where I was responsible for the development of the surveying software TopoCAD. This software works in cooperation with the technical drawing software AutoCAD. In 1998 I started to work for the U.S. company Autodesk (developers of AutoCAD) where I fulfilled various international business consulting jobs for GIS & Mapping.
