Jonas Freiburghaus

Environmental systems scientist working at the intersection of land, ecology, and code.

I design systems, then build them with AI. Small, careful tools — for growers, for restoration and rewilding, for anyone trying to plan well within living systems. Most of it is given away.


Projects

TerraForge

in progress
Geospatial Python Godot 4

Draw a bounding box over any Central European site, get a photorealistic Godot 4 scene from live LiDAR and satellite data in under a minute. Sculpt terrain, paint habitat communities, watch a 50-year ecological succession unfold.

Web TypeScript Real-time

A real-time collaborative outliner for small teams. One infinitely nested tree, tags that cut across hierarchy, WebSocket sync. No folders, no documents — just nodes.

Web AI Embeddings

A collective ideation platform where AI finds unexpected connections between thoughts. Embeddings evolve as discussions progress — the more a cluster is discussed, the more precise its semantic position becomes.

Python Local AI NLP

Self-hosted news synthesis. Scrapes RSS feeds, deduplicates with pgvector similarity, clusters stories with BERTopic, and generates grounded articles with inline citations using local Ollama models. No API keys required.

Vanilla JS Market Gardening

A mobile-first planning tool for commercial market gardeners. Backward-plan from harvest targets, model capacity in bed-weeks, sketch your garden on an interactive canvas map. Intentionally a single HTML file — field-notebook aesthetic.

Entropy's Defiance

Android Kotlin Jetpack Compose

A minimalist Android launcher and task manager. Tasks live across five time horizons — Today through This Life — and sync via Syncthing for seamless cross-device access.

CLI Python Ollama

Ask your terminal a question in plain language, get the exact command back. Runs entirely on local Ollama models — no telemetry, no API keys. Works on Arch, Ubuntu, and Fedora with Wayland and X11 support.


About

Austrian environmental systems scientist by training, working at the intersection of land, ecology, and code. I build small, careful tools — for growers, for restoration and rewilding, for anyone trying to plan well within living systems.

My technical background spans GIS and spatial analysis — primarily QGIS — alongside programming in Python and the broader stack these projects run on. I design the architecture; AI does much of the building. I think that's honest about how this kind of work happens now, and I'd rather say so than pretend otherwise.

Most of what I make is given away. If something here has been useful to you, a coffee keeps me at it.

Currently building on Lygra, Norway [on.lygra.no].
