I participated in a department project which provided access to, understanding of, and spatial context for a range of data utilized in the operation of SDSU facilities and services.

​

Throughout the project, my duties ranged:

​

• I identified locations for the collection of survey-grade, cm accuracy ground control points to be used for georeferencing unmanned aircraft system (UAS or drone) imagery.

​

• I collected feature positions and attribute information for a range of features of interest to SDSU's Public Safety Department (fire extinguishers, automated external defibrillators, and building access points).

​

• I also georeferenced CAD files showing floor plans for individual buildings and entered collected data into a geodatabase

​

With this, we were able to utilize Esri’s ArcGIS Enterprise platform to store, access, visualize, analyze, and serve multiple geographic information systems (GIS) data layers, airborne imagery sets, and digital surface/terrain models. This could then be accessed using web/mobile geospatial apps for ease of use, and/or desktop installations of ArcGIS software.
