Created and maintained functional geospatial databases comprising of the Town’s Public Works Department's assets, as well as incorporated the GIS data into CentralSquare’s Enterprise Asset Management platform.• Gathered spatial data on all Public Works-related Town-owned resources including elements such as buildings, trees, streetlights, traffic signals, benches, monuments, irrigation systems, and more. These features were later digitized in their respective locations and the appropriate attributes were added. Unique IDs were also assigned. This data was either conveyed by Public Works department heads or collected in the field using a GPS device.• Existing stormwater and sanitary sewer system data was also managed and regularly updated. The Water Resources Department routinely requests data revisions as information is gathered either through field observations or as-built plan examinations. • Provided admin support for Central Square Enterprise Asset Management (formerly Lucity) software. This included record updates, security, adding/removing users, granting permissions, troubleshooting, and synchronizing the Lucity and GIS databases.

Processed client data for optimal efficiency.• Configured and maintained a full GIS Enterprise stack consisting of virtual machines and server software from ESRI and Geocortex, as well as the underlying RDBMS built on Microsoft SQL Server. This was done in the Azure Cloud via a Development, Test, Staging, and Production IT setup that integrated version-controlled repository hosting software such as GitHub.• Created, understood, and coordinated GIS data management best practices. Designated responsibilities and established access permissions within the GIS team. Acted as the “gate keeper”; carefully scrutinizing data received from GIS technicians before appending/updating/deleting data to/from the SDE database.• Evaluated optimal functionality and presentation for clients in various industries such as: Cultural, environmental, governmental, international geopolitics, oil & gas, and transportation.• Developed workflows to integrate data into web maps for client usage. This included writing Python scripts to automate monthly updates from data vendors. Other workflows included data revisions and map properties, such as scale, coordinate system, and symbology.• Oversaw ArcSDE geodatabases, as well as Microsoft Azure file data stores. Formulated data models and strategies concerning naming conventions, organization properties, geoprocessing procedure, data migration, and testing protocol.• Processed and organized historical aerial imagery, as well as georectified drone imagery. The historical images (both privately and government-sourced) were used as time-aware rasters within mosaic datasets in order to assess temporal changes.

Performed geospatial analyses, created/revised high-quality maps, carried out drone flight missions, conducted field work, and sustained project progress according to scope and schedule.• Developed a methodology in order to perform georeferencing and digitizing services to assist with populating Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) District Four’s stormwater asset database. Managed preparation, training, scheduling, execution, correspondence, deliverables, and updates/troubleshooting for the project. Tasks included georeferencing as-built plans, analyzing system flow, digitizing the drainage assets, and adding appropriate attribute information in FDOT’s GIS database, as requested for compliance with FDOT’s NPDES permit.• Launched and managed the company's UAV/Drone program. Maintained drone fleet and implemented projects. Performed drone flight missions for creating orthomosaics, wetland delineations, 3D models, tree surveys, elevation models, construction site monitoring, cut/fill calculation, ditch analyses, marketing purposes, and more.• Spatially analyzed areas of soil contamination for future development sites, assessed LiDAR data, and evaluated historical and current aerial imagery in order to compare data and interpret changes. Composed maps for various projects such as endangered species tracking, invasive plant and tree species distribution, or potential boat mooring sites.• Conducted inspections of stormwater treatment facilities and outfalls to identify functional defects. This included the review of the South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) Environmental Resource Permits. Also, supported the Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) and Basin Management Action Plan (BMAP) processes by providing GIS maps of discharge locations, sampling sites, waterbody IDs, and non-structural BMPs, such as street sweeping.• Provided GIS instructional training to other employees. Performed QC/QA for other GIS/mapping projects within the company.

Bethpage, New York, Us

Conducted geographic and spatial analyses with the purpose of updating development databases and publishing to production datasets. Analyzed and processed LiDAR data to create digital elevation models in order to evaluate Line-of-Sight (LOS) between transmitters and receivers. Assessed customer and website data to assess market penetration and interest.•• Performed demographic, urban, trend, and cluster analyses for the Marketing and Sales departments to accurately define customer base and provide strategic planning. Utilized geocoding, zoning, and land use information to best identify potential clientele and marketing domains.• Analyzed LiDAR data to predict levels of market penetration. Examined aerial images to determine if buildings had satellite dishes, and their locations. If flagged, the building was then ground-truthed for accuracy, and the dish was digitized, if needed, in order to assist the installation team in reducing frequency conflict with Cablevision dishes.•• Created and maintained map grids in order to develop sales routes to be published in physical map books as well as in geodatabases, thus assisting the sales managers in assigning individual territories and tracking salespersons.• Generated spreadsheet data consisting of addresses for potential customers, as determined by LiDAR data analysis. Developed and ran data models to quickly and easily flag customers with various types of issues. •• Acted efficiently as the company’s on-call cartographer, generating a variety of specialized maps within deadlines. Maps were used to illustrate demographics, land use, various types of crime and frequency, customer accessibility to product, and for troubleshooting.• Trained new employees in LiDAR analysis and creating sales routes and territories. Managed former, current, and potential customer GIS-centric databases.

Cooperated with, and oversaw students of Florida Atlantic University in this environmental mapping project. Examining high-resolution aerial images taken from low-flying aircraft over the coastline of Southeast Florida, this remote sensing project consisted of digitizing and evaluating various aspects of coastal geographic features, mainly hard-bottom reef structure, and its change over time.•• Led students in training in remote sensing skills implementation and delegated individual weekly tasks / goals to ensure project continuity.•• Employed Adobe Photoshop, Erdas IMAGINE, and ArcGIS to plot polygons in order to accurately depict reef structure, rack lines, emergent rocks, borrow areas, and other coastal features off the coast of Palm Beach County. Edited and queried existing coastal asset data provided by the County.•• Quantified and compared data continually in time series analyses for the purpose of examining transitions of reef makeup, size, and arrangement over time, with the emphasis put on changes in reef structure during and after years of multiple tropical cyclones. •• Gathered information throughout the duration of the project to construct reports, tables, figures, and ultimately, develop master's thesis. Upon completion, the master’s thesis was presented to ERM to be used in the County’s continuous research of the coastline.
