Evidence
Every public claim remains connected to a source, status, or explicit analytical basis.

Commissioned research and digital systems
Evidence systems for complex problems
Historical inquiry, geographic precision, formal reasoning, mathematical modeling, data engineering, and public communication brought together in one working research environment.
Position
From fragmented material to a verifiable public system
I work where ordinary disciplinary boundaries become insufficient: archives that must become geography, maps that must preserve sources, public interfaces that must remain academically honest, and complex structures that require both formal reasoning and production engineering.
Capabilities
Seven connected practices
Each practice can stand alone. Together they provide a complete route from research question and source corpus to database, atlas, public interface, and long-term operation.
Atlas systems
↗Digital Atlas Development
Commission source-aware digital atlases, interactive maps, temporal GIS interfaces, and public cartographic systems designed by Ararat Petrosyan.
Historical intelligence
↗Historical GIS Research
Historical GIS research, temporal geography, archival place reconstruction, historical boundaries, and source-aware spatial analysis by Ararat Petrosyan.
Memory and place
↗Cultural Heritage Mapping
Cultural heritage GIS, monument mapping, historical settlement databases, condition evidence, and digital memory systems designed by Ararat Petrosyan.
Spatial experience
↗3D Geospatial Visualization
Cesium 3D globe development, terrain visualization, heritage experiences, and source-aware geospatial interfaces designed for public research.
Data infrastructure
↗Rust Geospatial Data Engineering
Rust APIs, geospatial data pipelines, PostGIS architecture, normalization, indexing, and reliable public data delivery for map and research systems.
Archives and evidence
↗Research Database Development
Research databases, source-aware digital archives, provenance systems, place authorities, and public discovery interfaces for complex collections.
Formal systems engineering
↗Formal Logic and Computational Complexity Applications
Design and development of web applications, progressive web applications, mobile research tools, and interactive models for formal logic, computational complexity, SAT-style constraint systems, state spaces, mathematical structures, and verification workflows.
Method
One discipline across different kinds of complexity
Structure
Fragmented materials become a navigable system of records, relationships, periods, and places.
Verification
Coordinates, dates, transformations, and conclusions remain inspectable instead of disappearing behind the interface.
Publication
Research becomes a durable public instrument with stable pages, metadata, responsive design, and maintainable infrastructure.
Public proof
Proven public research systems
The public atlas collection embodies the studio’s core disciplines: source-linked records, temporal geography, national thematic mapping, large research corpora, live signals, and three-dimensional evidence environments.

Questions
Before a commission begins
What kinds of projects can be commissioned?+
The studio accepts selected work involving historical GIS, digital atlases, cultural heritage, 3D geography, research databases, Rust data infrastructure, formal modeling, and public evidence systems.
Can the studio work with an existing dataset or prototype?+
Yes. Existing databases, GIS layers, KML, GeoJSON, spreadsheets, archives, and interfaces can be audited and developed without discarding reliable prior work.
Are projects available to international organizations?+
Yes. The studio is designed for collaboration with institutions, archives, museums, universities, media teams, public organizations, and independent research initiatives.
How is a project scoped?+
The first stage identifies the research question, source corpus, geographic scope, required public outputs, technical constraints, timeline, and review responsibilities.
Commission
Bring the difficult project
Describe the research question, source material, geographic scope, intended audience, and the form the finished system should take.
