Calculated the nearest locations of fiber optic network cables and central offices on the national Verizon network to compare it to assets in our recent acquisition, the former XO Networks fiber optic system. Determined specific distances from central offices, cables, and off-network facilities in Seattle and Dallas. This was accomplished using geocoding to assign latitude and longitude to street addresses, and ArcToolbox in ESRI ArcGIS mapmaking software to generate the nearest locations. Microsoft Excel and Notepad were used to work with the dBase and comma separated values formats, in order to create new shapefiles from limited or missing information.Contract IT Infrastructure Analyst Geographic Information SystemsCRG Workforce - Charlotte, NC July 2015 to November 2015Geospatial system server setup and design for ESRI ArcGIS for Server and Maximo Spatial mapping software products at Duke Energy, a Fortune 250 electric utility. This multi-threaded software was deployed on a VMWare server farm of over 50 virtualized servers. These solutions were developed using an event-driven geoprocessing and ETL system with SQL and stored procedure triggers derived from an IBM Maximo enterprise message service, using a tool built with Java Spring. Oracle on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Windows Server 2012 and Citrix on 2008 R2 were used to support this Maximo work order system upgrade and the related Maximo Spatial implementation. The project integrates more than 50 technology systems, introduces mobile computing to daily workflow. Android and iOS mobile phones and tablets running on ESRI and IBM platforms are being used to improve data collection. IBM Maximo Spatial is being used to serve ESRI web map services and provide a bidirectional data flow from end users. My team also must integrate GE Smallworld, Intergraph G/Technology, TomTom, and TeleAtlas GIS data. Part of my work on ArcGIS for Server required tuning web map database queries for high performance by altering the map scale and hydrologic data.GIS ArchitectAlexander Open Systems - Addison, TX - January 2015 to March 2015GIS system architecture and design for a large IT service and equipment value added reseller. AOS is an ESRI Silver Partner, with my role being sales of GIS services in the Dallas and Fort Worth region.

We offered JavaScript and HTML5 programming, Java programming, ArcMap data creation, professional assistance on Oracle and SQL database tuning and database queries, and creating high performance environments for ArcServer and ArcGIS as well as AutoCAD Map. AOS sells, designs, and services EMC, Brocade, and many other large, high performance servers and networking equipment. SharePoint system design was also offered. HP computers were sold in bulk to many companies.GIS DeveloperContract Land Staff, LLC Sugar Land, TX - July 2014 to January 2015Python scripting and REST based web map service updates in ESRI ArcGIS for Server for a medium sized right of way consulting firm serving pipeline owners and electric utilities. Used both ModelBuilder and ArcPy scripting in IDLE to accomplish geoprocessing tasks and automate database versioning, map book updates, SQL queries, data driven pages, and web map maintenance. I regularly updated 150 JavaScript based web map viewers within ArcGIS for Server on a SQL Server database. Data was often derived from CAD, KML and Google Earth. Our projects used multiple coordinate systems in various EPSG and WKT formats. We ran five physical and VMWare servers to support right-of-way projects across the United States. Clients included Kinder Morgan, Energy Transfer, TransCanada, Sunoco, Buckeye, and AEP. Map services, geodatabase services, and feature services were updated nightly to reflect the edits of sixteen people based on input from over 600 field agents working with landowners. Mobile maps were supported on iOS phones and iPad tablets for constant use by ROW agents to ensure data quality. This high performance system was expected to have constant availability for engineers, right-of-way staff and landowners, so we had to script maintenance and update tasks for weekends and overnight hours.Contract FME DeveloperShell - Houston, TX - March 2014 to June 2014Contracted ETL and C# developer through Accenture and Iconma LLC in a software architecture group for an unconventional shale oil data warehouse and integration project at Royal Dutch Shell in the Houston area North American IT headquarters. The overall result was to get sixteen large databases arranged to provide content to a reporting system, as well as greater amounts of data exchange. There were servers and data warehouses containing Tobin, LandWorks, MDM, SQL tables and Oracle databases in Windows and Linux environments. FME is a spatial ETL software program for converting over 400 different GIS, CAD, and database formats. It is similar in nature to Informatica or the ESRI Data Interoperability Extension. I completed the transition of ESRI ArcGIS data to SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services) for logging after translation in FME. This was accomplished using REST and SOAP on FME Server. This process allowed us to create coordinate transformations in EPSG and WKT formats, and provide detailed email alerts to map editors and people maintaining each local data warehouse.Contract GIS ManagerNavy Region Midwest - federal contract through Capstone Corporation - Naval Station Great Lakes, IL - November 2012 to March 2014Cartographer and GIS lead at Navy Region Midwest in the Regional Operations Center.
