• Advanced spatial analytics
• GIS data analysis and reporting
• Stormwater infrastructure and utility asset analysis
• Flood simulation and modeling
• 3D visualization and modeling
• GIS dashboard development
• CAD-to-GIS integration
• Asset management and infrastructure planning
• Real-time and ad hoc analysis requests

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Analyze existing GIS, utility, and stormwater data to answer business and engineering questions.
