.NET Conf 2023 - Spatial Data with Entity Framework Core and .NET MAUI
Entity Framework Core is great for performing crud operations, but did you know that you can go beyond basic relational queries with Entity Framework Core? Do you need to store spatial data or find the nearest points of interest to a given location?
If you answered Yes to any of the above questions, this is the talk you do not want to miss.

I’m a backend engineer and software architect with 17+ years of .NET, mostly in banking and fintech: payment and transaction processing, public APIs, and the internal platforms other teams build on. I’ve led teams and a platform unit, and I stay hands-on in the code, increasingly through AI coding agents like Claude Code and Codex.
Alongside that, I build open-source .NET libraries and developer tools with 45M+ NuGet downloads: DuckDB.NET, EntityFramework.Exceptions, EFCore.Visualizer and others. That work sits where .NET meets the database: native interop, Native AOT extensions for DuckDB and PostgreSQL, and tooling that makes query plans easier to debug. I also speak about .NET and databases at conferences like NDC, KCDC and .NET Conf.
