The Mapping Revolution: Incorporating Geographic Information Systems in Gover...GovLoop
Since the beginning of civilization, humans have used images as a means to tell stories. We have used images to educate, entertain or to build a just and moral society. Our ancient ancestors would use images to remember stories and archive information for future generations. Similar to our ancient ancestors, we use images today to convey meaning, understand complex relationships and improve communication.
The use of mapping and geospatial technology is at the heart of story telling and improved communications. As the challenges of the public sector continue to grow in complexity, efficient and effective communication tools are essential. Today, government is more interconnected than ever before, and the complexity has led to increased integration between state, local and federal officials. At all levels of government, agencies are looking for solutions to find value and improve public sector decision-making through data. http://www.govloop.com/profiles/blogs/govloop-guide-the-mapping-revolution-incorporating-geographic-inf

Time is of the essence for local governments in this age of
the Internet of things and big data. A fundamental question
is “Can government be disrupted?” The answer is yes, and
it will happen, brought about by driverless cars, drones, big
data-driven algorithms, and robots. The way that we currently
conduct business in government will change, requiring fewer
people, fewer facilities, and less equipment.
Leveraging ArcGIS Platform & CityEngine for GIS based Master PlansEsri India
Sustainable, scalable and future ready urban development is one the key priorities in India as well globally. Major government programs i.e. Smart Cities and Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) aim to build foundations to achieve this.
For any planned development, master plan is a starting point. A master plan provides a long term blueprint that guides the sustainable planned development of the city. Use of GIS for master planning is not new. GIS-based Master Plans will help in different types of urban planning exercises, e.g. preparation of development plan, zonal plan, utility plan, infrastructure plan, etc. Even Smart City program and AMRUT programs mandate use of GIS for master plan creation.
ArcGIS is a complete platform for end-to-end city planning, design and management. The webinar illustrates how ArcGIS Platform and 3D capabilities of CityEngine provides a complete set of tools for end-to-end GIS based master plan creation and updation.

Dear Hiring Manager:
With over 20 years of experience conceptualizing, developing, and
implementing cutting-edge GIS and IT systems that promote optimal time
and cost efficiency, productivity, and performance, I believe I am the ideal
candidate for the GIS/IT director that any company is seeking. Throughout
my career, I have had the wonderful opportunity to promote the value of GIS
to countless organizations, provide vast technical training and mentorship,
and lead critical GIS projects that have truly transformed organizational
operations. I also have extensive IT training and expertise, and over 20 years
of AutoCAD experience. Some career highlights during my tenure as the
Bureau Chief for the Bureau of GIS & Project Manager for IT - County of Union
include:
Built an enterprise GIS system from conception to completion, and launched
a thriving Union County GIS Bureau, earning promotion to lead all county govt.
IT operations for 500+ employees (helpdesk, networking, engineering, and
programming).
Led Union County to become the first county in NJ to digitize and publish
Certified Drug Free Zone Maps using Arc SDE, Arc Info, and Arc Server to
publish maps securely, subsequently diminishing operational costs for the
Prosecutor’s Office.
Directed Union County in becoming the first NJ county to automate the
Megan’s Law Notification Process in GIS, thus eliminating paper trails and
saving considerable Prosecutor’s Office employee efforts.
Spearheaded the design and implementation of the Cartegraph Asset
Management System for the entire county (2600 employees in 18 dept’s),
effectively replacing four different asset management systems previously
used in various departments.
Serve and continue to participate on GIS policy-making Task Forces to
developstandards to be used by other NJ counties.
I also have a Master of Business Administration (MBA) and two Bachelor’s
Degrees—one in Engineering and another in Management. Furthermore, I
am a Certified Geographic Information System Professional and have
certifications and training in Architectural Drafting & Detailing, AutoCAD,
ESRI, Pictometry, and Windows based servers. My résumé showcases
additional career accomplishments, but I am certain that a personal
interview will best demonstrate my desire and ability to fulfill the
responsibilities of the position. I look forward to hearing from you so that
we can arrange a time to meet to further discuss your needs and my
qualifications. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Matt Mathan

“I recently received a phone call from another
prosecutor’ office asking what software we used
for our maps. When I explained…what you and
your unit are doing for us, her immediate
response was could I send you to that county
when you were finished with us. I think the
appreciation and envy that another assistant
prosecutor has for the work that you are doing
speaks volumes.” ~ Theodore J. Romankow,
Prosecutor, Union County
“Please accept this letter as a hearty thank you
for training Police Officers throughout Union
County on the use of Pictometry. The reports I
have received from Officers you trained have
been very positive, not only for your training
techniques, but also for the understanding you
have imparted in the use of this important tool.”
~ Henry W. Jaeger, Executive Assist Prosecutor,
Union County
“I would like to take this opportunity to thank you
for all the assistance you have provided this
office for well over a year. Your most valuable
service to us was the assistance you provided in
the acquisition of the web-based Incident
Management Software. I would also like to thank
you for the work you and your staff performed on
our GIS computer. This data is a great help when
planning for hazmat incident response and other
incidents.” ~ Ben Laganga, Director,
Environmental Health & Emergency
Management
“Mr. Mathan has helped our town to distribute
GIS data throughout many departments with an
easy to use website, thus saving the town of
Westfield thousands of dollars in technical costs.
He has provided us with training and established
a convenient way to add information and update
the website regularly.” ~ Paul Horta, Westfield
Town Surveyor
“I attended the AutoCAD training provided by
Matt Mathan of the Union County Bureau of GIS.
The class was a significant benefit to me and has
helped me understand the benefits of AutoCAD
and GIS for the City of Summit. Matt is an
excellent teacher and is an asset to the Union
County Bureau of GIS.” ~ Andrew R. Hipolit,
City Engineer, City of Summit
