Alex Geere expanded the GEOLYTIX/MapIcons visual assets library by designing and integrating new SVG icons, including a coffee bean, a branded logo, and a perfume shop marker, to enhance map branding and user experience. Working closely with design and brand teams, Alex managed asset pipelines and ensured seamless integration through Git version control and thorough rendering validation. The SVG assets were incorporated into the map rendering workflow, supporting improved map readability and consistent branding across products.
