Fall Regional Spotlight: Essential Geospatial Workflows for Project Delivery

Posted By: Sara Chiamulera Fall Regional,

Join Kelly Jacobs, from CORRE, Inc., at the WLIA Fall Regional to learn more about her work in the Driftless Area.

Every day we plan to use our available resources to accomplish project goals. Just like the Driftless Area, it seems that every project is unique and every one of those available resources is needed to deliver a quality product.  I’d like to step through a case study where historical imagery and other geospatial resources provided critical information for a routine wetland delineation project in the City of Prairie du Chien. An effective project will bring together resources like ArcPro, FieldMaps, GNSS receivers, iPads, ArcGIS Online, Dashboards, Server connections, apps, and even conversations with neighbors to ensure that not just the location is accurate. Additional examples of how geospatial resources are woven into daily workflows will further illustrate these resources as essential components of project delivery.
