Marketable Skills

The following documentation explains my knowledge, skills and abilities as related to a GIS/CAD positions.

Knowledge of civil engineering concepts, land surveying principles and practices sufficient to support engineering design and land surveying projects.

Cadastral projects:

My experience includes analyzing and resolving discrepancies with cadastral projects. These discrepancies relate to closing traverses - sometimes requiring manual use of surveying mathematics as outlined in the Land Surveyor's Reference Manual (Harbin) - correcting misplaced control points, and adjusting cadastral boundaries that do not accurately overlay rastered ortho-photography or edge-match with adjacent boundaries. Further skills include:

• Entering traverse data using the legal descriptions.

·         Performing quality control on subdivisions by cross-correlated monuments between plats and researched changes in monuments over the history of the property to ensure proper control for the placement of these land boundaries.

• Determining the plane coordinate system for the project and re-projection of control points.

Other GIS/CAD Project Experience:

For 4.5 years, I worked in a production GIS shop – creating maps and geodatabases for utility and cadastral projects. I also received an in-house certification in AutoCAD 2011 from O.C.E. This was an intensive six month course that included the AutoCAD tutorials up to the advanced level. I was able to successfully put my AutoCAD education to use while employed at i-TEN Associates. In addition to 2D CAD drafting I have experience with 3D architectural modeling utilizing laser scan (point cloud) data sets.

Software experience:

Bentley MicroStation V8i; AutoCAD 2011; ESRI ArcGIS Suite; Microsoft Office Suites; Adobe Acrobat Reader/Writer; and PaintShop software platforms.
