CHRISTOPHER B. PICKETT

• Understanding of ArcMap and MicroStation extensively to provide accurate representation of geographic shapes for roadway projects
• Provided GIS guidance well over 50 projects within course of three year period
• Transformed ArcGIS shapefiles into MicroStation and use those objects to create exhibits for clients such as drainage systems, road systems, and other engineering related exhibits
• Combined remotely-collected and on-site data acquisition to generate unified geographic mapping information.
• Operated as primary point of contact for clients, providing GIS work order proposals with time-to-completion and budgeting estimates.

• Created effective maps, charts and other images based on project-specific requirements.
• Maintained and designed reference maps using GIS software to help engineers better understand and improve logical thinking
• Worked with clients to meet specific technical specifications and solve operational concerns.
• Digitizing polygons to provide accurate representation of real world objects in 2D space
• Generated data layers, tables and reports for use by government clients.
• Used Geographic Information Systems technology to produce highly detailed technical exhibits

• Evaluated and enhanced cartographic representations of archival as built sheets in enterprise GIS database
• Increased productivity, accuracy and efficiency while reducing delays and eliminating errors during data upload procedures.
• Evaluated and enhanced cartographic representations of archival as built sheets in enterprise GIS database
• Processed and analyzed 1000s of historical documents for corporate wide geo database system

Studying in this field has prepared my knowledge to properly plan and manage natural resources. I learned to integrate scientific issues into solving problems surrounding our environment. I️ studied extensively into the parts and processes of ecology in forests, range-lands and water systems. Understood the value of using various computer applications with ecology such as Esri's ArcGIS and Microsoft's Office Excel. Intensive understanding of the workings of ecosystems of how they co-evolve with human influences.

• Attained knowledge of the statistical analysis of plants, water, and soil data to acquire an understanding of ecological factors, with a strict evaluation of environmental qualities.

• Specified ability in programs such as ArcGIS and Microsoft Office to formalize technology with various environmental and natural resource projects and the understanding spatial data with real world applications.
