About Me

I’m more than just a “GIS Guy”. I’m a seasoned environmental scientist AND GIS analyst, and have managed full-scale environmental investigation and remediation projects across the U.S. I have a background in both geology and GIS. After years of leading environmental projects I'm now pursuing my GIS passion full-time.

I have an arsenal of commercial and open source applications and over 15 years of real world experience. I implement BMP back-up and security; so, your data is always safe.

If you don’t have the capacity for in-house GIS support, I will be your GIS department.

Let’s put your data to work.

Environmental

If you're in the environmental sector, you know how important GIS is. With over 15 years of experience I have worked on some of the most complex and high profile projects in the country.

Building an accurate conceptual site model before breaking ground can save tens of thousands in contractor costs.

High precision mapping can secure regulatory approval the first time around.

I have extensive experience with:
  • groundwater modeling
  • corridor studies
  • geologic cross sections
  • elevation mapping
  • mapping for remediation projects
  • mapping for ecological projects

Architectural & Engineering

Are you using CAD but not GIS? Then you’re only seeing half the picture.

Adding GIS brings your CAD concepts into the real world. Visualize the broader context.

Give your designs more depth by analyzing:
  • shadow impacts
  • construction footprints
  • viewsheds
  • traffic patterns

New Jersey

If you have projects in New Jersey, you're faced with navigating one of the toughest regulatory landscapes in the country. Did you know the NJDEP Site Remediation Program also has strict requirements for the submission of GIS deliverables?

I have extensive experience in New Jersey and can help you comply with all of NJDEP's regulatory requirements, such as:
  • Submission requirements for CEA files
  • Submission requirements for deed notice files
  • Receptor evaluations
  • Well searches

In the News
I recently created a few maps for a news story featured on PlanPhilly.com. You can check it out here: http://planphilly.com/articles/2017/10/31/mapping-out-patterns-for-why-some-pa-towns-give-up-their-local-police-forces. PlanPhilly is a project of WHYY.org, which is a partner of NPR and PBS.

Dynamic Map Examples
SacRT System Map
This example presents a lightweight, mobile ready map of Sacramento RT's bus system, and links to SacRT's arrival time app. This map is provided "as-is" and for information only.

NJ Coast Topography - Barnegat Inlet
The ability of GIS to render 3D surface representations is one of it's most powerful assets. However, without special software, it's challenging to share 3D data. Now, fully interactive 3D models can be viewed using only a web browser. This approach could be used to share surface topography, contaminant plumes, groundwater models, or any number of 3D datasets; without the need for special viewing software.

Map Maker
Need a quick, presentation quality map? This map maker app is optimized for printing. Zoom to your location, pick a basemap, add a feature, update your title block, and just press print. Here's an example map.

Static Map Examples
I work diligently with each of my clients to develop a template that fits their style and needs. These have only been posted with client consent, and all identifying information has been removed. Here are a few examples:
