Build a dashboard for a covid-19 hotline calling system

Build a dashboard for a covid-19 hotline calling system

Description: This project was done for a course I took through Bootcamp GIS in partnership with the University of New Mexico. It is a COVID-19 hotline call dashboard with ArcGIS Pro.  People in Albuquerque could call into the hotline and a call taker asks questions and fills in a survey. That survey data is dynamically updated in this dashboard.

Data visualization exercises

Data visualization exercises

Description: These are screenshots captured while working from the book Discover QGIS 3.x by Kurt Menke. These exercises are from part 5 of the book, Advanced Data Visualization. This was assigned coursework I did in Geospatial Tech with John Beltran at Central New Mexico Community College.

Agroforestry Design Project in Berea, Kentucky

Agroforestry Design Project in Berea, Kentucky

Description: This is work done under Matt Wilson, the then-sustainable agriculture person at the Berea College farm. The project was to create a perennial polyculture system for livestock on 1 acre of Berea College farmland. These screenshots from Sketchup show contours I was able to create using elevation data I had obtained from Google Earth. The idea for the design was chestnut, apple, mulberry and swamp oak planted on contour. The species were selected based partly on USGS soil data, which is shown.

Bus Stops Around Campus

Bus Stops Around Campus

Description: This map is the product of a lab I did in my GIS 1 course taught by John Beltran at Central New Mexico Community College (CNM). It shows the distribution of bus stops around the Advanced Technology Center (ATC) campus of CNM.

Albuquerque Vertical Control Monuments

Albuquerque Vertical Control Monuments

Description: Vertical control monuments, or survey markers, are markers placed in key points on the Earth’s surface, used in land surveying. The map was the product of a lab done in the course “Geospatial Technology” taught by the instructor John Beltran at Central New Mexico Community College. In the lab, I performed a basic spatial analysis using various data. Although the analysis is simple, I was performing quite a few tasks, including creating queries.

Greater sage-grouse distribution

Greater sage-grouse distribution

Description: This map shows the current distribution of greater sage-grouse habitat over different types of federal lands. The map was the product of a lab done in the course “Geospatial Technology” taught by the instructor John Beltran at Central New Mexico Community College.

Rice Paddy Yield by Province in Vietnam (2020)

Rice Paddy Yield by Province in Vietnam (2020)

Description: This thematic map shows rice paddy yield of the 63 provinces of Vietnam. The map makes it easy to identify the regions with the highest yield. As expected, the Red River delta and the Mekong River deltas are among the highest yield regions.

Data: provided by the general statistics office website of the Vietnamese government.
