Job description
Create and maintain digitized maps and spatial layers using ArcGIS and ArcGIS Online
- Produce map outputs and graphics for projects; support drafting needs with AutoCAD Map 3D
- Organize and update data base content; perform quality checks and version control
- Research and interpret blueprints, plans, and drawings; document findings clearly
- Use Python and Arcade for workflow support and attribute logic when needed
Requirements
High school diploma plus two years technical training in computer science, or an associate degree in computer science (GIS specialization) and one year of experience
- Working knowledge of Windows, Excel, Office, ArcGIS, ArcGIS Online, Python, and Arcade
- Understanding of GIS concepts, procedures, and design methods Apply to help strengthen the City's GIS mapping and data accuracy. How Your Day Flows You'll start onsite in American Fork by reviewing incoming requests and prioritizing GIS updates. Most of the day is spent building or refining map layers in ArcGIS, checking attributes, and validating geometry so the information is dependable. You'll shift between screens and source materials-plans, drawings, and field notes-then translate them into clean, standardized records. When a map needs a polished finish, you'll format graphics for clear distribution and, as needed, move into AutoCAD Map 3D to align drafting outputs. You'll also spend focused time tightening datasets, keeping the data base organized, and using ArcGIS Online to publish or refresh content for internal use.
