Good evening,


We are searching for a cartographer here in Illinois (obscurely referred
to as a "map standards coordinator" by our University HR folks).  I will
be grateful if you could pass this announcement along to a potentially
interested party or can suggest contacts we might make directly.

 

This being the second position I have forwarded recently, perhaps I
should note that we have not found a funding windfall but are merely
replacing a spate of retirements prompted by our demographics and some
coming changes to our retirement system. In fact we currently have more
than a dozen searches open.

Don

Hello list,

While I share Ian's concern that the listserve not become an advertising channel for who-knows-what, the "purpose" statement does not specifically preclude that usage. Perhaps we could underscore the "within the State of Oregon" phrase, but that would effectively cut-off announcements about activities in Washington that I find quite valuable. Here is the entire purpose statement:

"The purpose of this list is to provide a forum for discussion about GIS and spatial data related activities within the State of Oregon. Potential topics include notices of current GIS activities, requests about the availability of datasets, questions about technical problems with GIS systems or software, requests for advice from those who have gone before you, and so forth."

If we want to eliminate announcements about activities that are extra-regional, perhaps some explicit guidance about that should be included in the purpose description for the list. I have explicitly cc'd the list administrators on this email.

Please feel free to discuss. I think this is an important change that should not be undertaken based on one comment. I have made liberal use of the "delete" key in the past related to this issue...  :)

Hi,
 
I did think the emails Ian mentioned were a bit over the top, but would like
to see this list kept open for some advertising, but it should be brief and
to the point. When my company, Juniper GIS, offers classes, I think this is
useful information and a service to members, but I purposely keep it brief
with a link to more information, and rarely advertise the same offering
twice. And I think that the subject line should be very explicit about the
email, so people can easily decide when to use the Delete key.
 
thanks

If this email contained statement along the lines of "Hey Oregon list users, you might be interested in the conference described in the following link because of XYZ" with an accompanying hyperlink, I might allow some leeway.  As sent, it is by all appearances an unsolicited advertisement for a conference with no Oregon, Washington, NW or other local content taking place in Washington DC.

I don't think advertisements for local (or not) events (training, conferences, meet-ups, pub-crawls, etc) should be banned but I think there should be some "value-added" content which makes it clear why it's being posted to this targeted list.

Best,
Dan

Those specific emails actually just got filtered into my spam mail so I got
off easy. I am also pretty quick on the delete key if it's not looking
relevant. Maybe someone can just let Andrew Clark know that we got the
point and need no additional postings and we can be done with it. If it's
not a recurring problem(disclaimer I haven't kept close enough track to
know if it's happened before) then it seems it might not be necessary to
come up with a revised purpose statement given some of the grey areas of
what's useful and not.
my two cents,

Hello
I enjoy getting the e-mails that talk about the different GIS events around the northwest. I also think that there should be more information, in the subject line, that tells the reason (Trainings, Conferences and other events) that the e-mail is being sent out. This may help me get better at using the delete key. :)

Juniper GIS's use of the list seems entirely appropriate, responsible and useful to subscribers.

I should not have used the word "advertising" to describe the excessive posting that I find annoying.  Apologies to responsible list users.

Hi,

I did think the emails Ian mentioned were a bit over the top, but would like to see this list kept open for some advertising, but it should be brief and to the point. When my company, Juniper GIS, offers classes, I think this is useful information and a service to members, but I purposely keep it brief with a link to more information, and rarely advertise the same offering twice. And I think that the subject line should be very explicit about the email, so people can easily decide when to use the Delete key.

thanks

Subject: [gis_info] Need for GIS training and Vendors on list serve
Message-ID: <CAGz8EDOcNjYGipUsY_MwWALhZG+NFnrPOwbSMMTNK6-1xFDuTw@mail.gmail.com>

My two cents.  I've worked the last 19 years (oh my I'm getting old!) in
this industry with my time equally split between private vendors and local
government. I currently work in local government.

I would be disappointed to see GIS training or conferences banned from this
list.  We all need to learn new tools, alternative methods, processes, and
best practices from other industries.  We also need to leverage group
trainings (and/or conferences) when possible to keep the cost down.  Being
able to leverage alternative trains or collaborate about training is key
function of this list.

I also believe that it is a mistake to ban solutions, products, or vendors
from this list just because they might be "advertising".  We need to learn
new things.  We desperately need to innovate.  These providers are a rich
source of new ideas and innovation.  Not listening to these channels
is equivalent to operating in a vacuum.  Local government and many of my
past private clients are in crisis and in need of innovation, better tools,
processes, and business practices.

Cutting off our exposure to better training, the best practices of other
industries or vendor solutions is not going to move our organizations,
government, or our industry forward.   Now is not the time to do some kind
of list server book burning or digital witch hunt.

Please don't screw up this list serve.
Thanks
Rob

Well said. I suspect Ian's objective was to minimize the somewhat
repetitive emails that had an "advertising" bent. Clear subject lines (as
others have pointed out) and concise, non-repetitive messages may resolve
it.
I also appreciate hearing about conferences, training, and new innovations.

Forwarding for a subscriber who was having problems with the listserv
today:

 

    I'm fairly new to this list, just a few months, and lately have been
ignoring emails from this list because of the high percentage of spam
involved -- as we've seen again today. I'm wondering if there's an easy
techno-fix to the problem. One possibility would be to ban all messages
which have anything other than text or links in them. That is, ban
anything with graphics.  That would have eliminated some of the worst
recent stuff yet would still allow postings along the line of "Hey --
neat conference coming up, click here for details"  messages. Another
possibility would be to ban messages over a certain length -- again
trying to bias the content to the core message while providing links to
folks who want more information. Either or both of these, if they could
be implemented, would greatly increase the overall value the list
without unduly burdening folks with real messages of interest to the
readers.

Thanks for the messages today.  We definitely want the listserv to
remain valuable for all users.

 

In the past, we have had an informal policy not to allow advertising,
and when asked, we've told folks not to send explicit advertising for
GIS products or services to this listserv.  So even though that's not
excluded as part of our officlal purpose statement, it generally doesn't
happen.

 

When someone does send advertising for a product or service that is not
an education or training opportunity, we have asked them not to repeat
such posts.  So far, we have not been forced to remove or ban anyone
from the list for continuing to post unwanted or inappropriate messages.

 

My inclination is to continue with our current practice.  If we continue
to have a problem, we can escalate.  Please don't hesitate to let me or
Dave Mather, the co-administrator for this listserv, know if you
continue to feel like you're receiving inappropriate messages here.

Hello All,

   Does anyone have a written description of categories of GIS users (in

a document aimed at managers who are not necessarily very familiar with the

Below is an earlier private reply I had sent to Ian.  I also wanted to
say I think that Dan's idea is a good one, the message needs to make
the case of, "this is relevant to Oregon because..." (obviously if it
is an event in Oregon we can all figure that out ourselves, same for
WA and some of ID and CA).

I agree and was considering saying something as well.  Something like
the number of notices for an event to this list should be proportional
to its Oregon involvement and relevancy and inversely proportional to
distance away from Oregon.  Therefore, a conference on the East Coast
with marginal Oregon involvement and relevancy should at most get 1
email to this list (perhaps 0). A conference in Oregon with lots of
the Oregon gis notables involved with the conference should probably
get 5 (notice of date, call for abstracts, early registration, late
registration,  reminder/last call).

Hi Barb.

 

URISA has a document on their web site that I've found useful.  It is
Model Job Descriptions for GIS Professionals.  It provides good examples
of the primary GIS job categories and the duties related to such
positions.  Here's the link:
http://www.urisa.org/model_job_descriptions

 

I'm sure Esri has some documentation as well, but I can't put my finger
on it at the moment.

 

Good Luck.

Rachel

Hello All,

 

   Does anyone have a written description of categories of GIS users (in
this case  users of ESRI software)? I'm looking for something to include
in a document aimed at managers who are not necessarily very familiar
with the GIS. It might categorize on the basis of  technological
sophistication or area of expertise.

Barb,
 
Probably a level up from what you're looking for (organizational rather than
individual), but maybe related, there was an article about the URISA
Municipal GIS Capability Maturity Model in ArcNews not too long ago:
http://www.esri.com/news/arcnews/winter1011articles/urisa-proposes.html

The URISA article was written in 2000. I look at a modern GIS shop in two parts. Data / Map Production and Application Production / Development with the GIS Manager in charge of both groups.  I would say that the days of a GIS professional learning to develop are gone. It is best to teach a computer scientist GIS rather than the other way around.

You've got it;  I am also including a bonus image. I would also look at a case study that was performed for Baltimore County, MD by Dewberry. It is the best I have seen and won a SAG at one point.

I am very familiar with this topic since I went through an entire reclassification process in Henrico Virginia. The goal was to create career path for anyone in the "GIS Office" to make it to manager. It also values both skill sets equally while recognizing they are different.  I do not intend to open a "can of worms" but there is a difference and too often HR does not recognize that.

I agree Juston.  I like the image you attached.  Definitely more up to date than the article I mentioned.

Thanks!

The URISA article was written in 2000. I look at a modern GIS shop in two parts. Data / Map Production and Application Production / Development with the GIS Manager in charge of both groups.  I would say that the days of a GIS professional learning to develop are gone. It is best to teach a computer scientist GIS rather than the other way around.

Just an opinion.

Hi Barb.

URISA has a document on their web site that I've found useful.  It is Model Job Descriptions for GIS Professionals.  It provides good examples of the primary GIS job categories and the duties related to such positions.  Here's the link:  http://www.urisa.org/model_job_descriptions

I'm sure Esri has some documentation as well, but I can't put my finger on it at the moment.

Good Luck.

Hello All,

   Does anyone have a written description of categories of GIS users (in this case  users of ESRI software)? I'm looking for something to include in a document aimed at managers who are not necessarily very familiar with the GIS. It might categorize on the basis of  technological sophistication or area of expertise.

Subject: [gis_info] Query about custom printable maps
Message-ID: <CACz9N2=DkJFCm392k68LtrZrYA+3hEnu4sLLf05wVRt8RQSzAg@mail.gmail.com>

Hi All ?


We (Wasco County) are working on a project to make our web presence better.
 Right now the State hosts/maintains our interactive map site (thanks,
Erik!); we are looking to expand that with a self-hosted site and
additional hooks. We intend to use ArcGIS Server for the mapping (we?re
using IMS on an internal site now).


One of the ideas is to let the Public make custom maps at our web site with
the option of having them printed on our plotter. There would be a fee if
we did the printing. I recall seeing this done before (years ago), but
can?t find it on any County interactive mapping sites. If any of you have
done this, were there too many issues (I can think of a few) to continue
the service? Also, any idea on what the cost or timeline was to develop it?


Thanks, and will Sum,



Tycho

Hi, Everyone

As you have learned in a previous announcement, a Planning Workgroup is forming to tackle standards and Framework development and stewardship for Zoning and Comprehensive Plan Maps, along with documenting stewardship for the UGB Framework. Several of you have stepped forward to work on these important GIS elements. We have good representation from small and larger cities, but no one working for county government has expressed an interest; ditto for tribes. If you work for a county or a tribe and would like to help bring these Framework elements to reality, please email or call me within the next few days. We'll soon be setting our first meeting and will arrange methods of participation that do not require you to travel.

I look forward to rounding out the workgroup and beginning the work.
