Dale is showing us the proper use of protection around a manhole. Our crew is working hard to collect field data in a safe and efficient manner. Depending on the traffic and location, we use cones, helmets, lights, vests, and street signs to keep our fellow Americans and our experts safe! It is very important to abide by the appropriate safety measures during field collection. I wonder if Dale was abiding before his boss surprised him on the street and took his picture? Oh, of course he was, he’s our experienced manhole expert!
Michalis Avraam and colleagues have summarized a wonderful blog entry titled, “The Essential Skills to Succeed in a GIS Career.” It offers a brief explanation of GIS, Programming, Database, and Project Management and Design skills essential for a successful career.

You just never know what you’ll find when you peek inside a manhole. Data collectors recently found a furry friend rummaging through a manhole in East Nashville. “Dale (one of our premier manhole experts) lifted the cover while I took a picture with our Nikon CoolPix s7c Wi-Fi enabled camera (let us know if you’re interested in one). I didn’t believe Dale when he asked me if I saw the raccoon,” said Tech-Nick. “We reviewed the picture and sure enough, he was right. Now each time Dale opens a manhole, we hunt for treasures like pirates looking for gold.” Luckily, for everyone, the raccoon wasn’t far from freedom and scurried to an headwall several yards away…most likely in route towards your trash can.

We recently arrived back in Nashville after investigating the need for a consolidated GIS at Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport (BTR). The assessment plan enabled us to probe different departments, consultants, and resources to learn the operational and communication strategies of the airport. In this phase of the assessment plan, we interviewed key airport managers to explore GIS possibilities. We would like to thank BTR for all of their support, and we look forward to showing them all that we can do!
