 Job Description

GIS ESRI Spatial Data Analysis

n   Used ESRI ArcGIS 9.2 to produce maps and reports for tender documents reports. This role included GIS analysis of build sites, pipelines, roads etc and creation of new ESRI shape files.

n   GIS analysis included raster datasets with buffering, clipping and combining ESRI shape files. Also vector GIS analysis was used in mapping different routes for new roads by using snapping and tracing tools in the ESRI ArcGIS suite.

n   Creation of Geospatial Database for Public Sectors using Microsoft Access and ArcGIS 9.2

n   Data Capturing of Property Boundaries from Ordnance Survey Master Maps using Arcview 9.2

n     Georeferencing of Paper maps and creation of thematic maps
