Spatial Jobs Online News Bulletin - Edition 44

Spatial Jobs Online News Bulletin

January 2013 Issue 44

This edition of the Spatial Jobs Online News Bulletin comes at a time of severe weather in Australia - tragic fires have torn through many parts of the country and residents of Brisbane are being cruelly subjected to further flooding. Ex-tropical cyclone Oswald makes its way down the east coast. Our thoughts are with all of those people affected by the disasters.

We are continuing to experience strong growth in our candidate database, as more and more job seekers realise the benefits of registering on the site.

Don’t forget you can follow us on Twitter at @Spatial_Jobs for jobs as they’re posted and other industry/unrelated tidbits.

This edition we’re re-profiling GIS professional Tim Fardon. Tim is looking for anyone with a Geospatial problem worthy of university honours research so let’s see if we can help him out. Throw him your tough ones!

Candidate Profile - Timothy Fardon

I take this opportunity to introduce myself and appreciate your time taken to read this.

My name is Timothy (Tim) Fardon and I have completed my 4^rd Year of the Geographic Information Science and Commerce Property Degree at Curtin University in Perth, Western Australia.  I have just been invited to do the merit based GIScience Honours Program in 2013. Without a second thought I accepted the offer.  

I am writing this article in the anticipation for the opportunity of future employment and/or Honours Project ideas and possibilities. It is recommended an industry backed GeoSpatial problem be undertaken as the Honours project. Preferably I would be able to work Full Time with a company based in Perth, Western Australia, that could offer a sound project worthy of Honours research. 

I have been working for Cleveland Mining, an Australian exploration company which now has an operational Gold Mine in Brazil, for the past 7 months on a casual basis.

Responsibilities/Tasks I have completed for Cleveland Mining are as follows:-

-          3 weeks on the Brazilian Mine Site office teaching three Brazilian Geologists how to digitise, manipulate and use ESRI ArcGIS.

-          A Digital Terrain Model for an Amazon located exploratory project. Satellite imagery collected and used.

-          Various maps of Geological Structures, Infrastructure and Drill Holes

-          Geo-Database Creation, Indexing and Updating. No ArcGIS software was in use prior to my employment.

-          Spatial Analysis of Drill samples e.g. Kriging to highlight areas of greatest Gold ppb results.

-          Thematic maps for Cleveland Mining Annual Reports.

I have the normal experience and proficiency with Microsoft Office software and have worked with MapInfo, AutoCAD and SQL programming software previously.

I would appreciate the opportunity to gain further Industry Experience and if you would like to see an example of my work please make contact.  

Yours Faithfully

Timothy Fardon
