The ideal candidate is an entry-to-junior level geospatial professional who bridges the gap between traditional mapping and advanced spatial data engineering. We are seeking an analytical thinker who can leverage cloud-native data architectures and geospatial AI workflows to deliver mission-critical decision support to the public safety community. The National Alliance for Public Safety GIS (NAPSG) Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that was formed in 2005 to overcome the challenges faced by Federal, tribal, state, and local public safety agencies in the adoption and use of geospatial technology as a tool to protect their citizens., JOB DESCRIPTION: The GIS Infrastructure Data Analyst supports NAPSG's LINK (or Local Infrastructure Network Knowledge) project by applying geospatial analytics, data transformation, infrastructure classification, and repeatable QA/QC workflows. LINK is an AI-enabled geospatial knowledge graph application focused on critical physical infrastructure including utilities, transportation, communications, water, energy, health care, public safety facilities, and other essential services communities rely on before, during, and after emergencies. This role helps prepare, enrich, validate, and integrate real-world infrastructure asset data so it can power LINK's map, graph, semantic search, and AI-assisted analytic capabilities. The Analyst collaborates with AI engineering, GIS, emergency management, and infrastructure subject-matter experts to turn raw spatial data into accurate, explainable, and reusable infrastructure intelligence. Significant responsibilities include, but are not limited to: · Support the development, cleaning, transformation, and integration of infrastructure-related GIS datasets. · Perform geospatial analysis to identify infrastructure asset relationships, proximity-based dependencies, service-area patterns, exposure areas, and potential interdependencies across infrastructure systems. · Assist with data enrichment workflows that add geographic, governance, response, operational, and infrastructure-domain context to raw asset datasets. · Help curate, normalize, and validate infrastructure asset classifications across multiple infrastructure data frameworks. · Prepare GIS datasets for system integration, including geometry validation, attribute standardization, unique identifier creation, schema alignment, and documentation of source data assumptions. · Support semantic mapping and classification workflows by reviewing AI-generated or embedding-based infrastructure asset matches, validating asset-type predictions, and flagging ambiguous or low-confidence mappings for review. · Create repeatable geoprocessing, data QA/QC, and analytic workflows using tools such as ArcGIS Pro, ModelBuilder, Python, or similar scripting and automation environments. · Develop and maintain clear metadata, data dictionaries, processing notes, and QA documentation so datasets remain transparent, auditable, and reusable. · Collaborate with AI engineering, GIS, emergency management, and infrastructure subject-matter experts to ensure data products are accurate, explainable, and useful for non-technical public safety users. · Support testing and evaluation by developing realistic infrastructure questions, validating map and graph outputs, reviewing agent responses against source data, and identifying data gaps that affect system performance. ## Related Videos - [Cyber Sleuth: Finding Hidden Connections in Cyber Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/893-cyber-sleuth-finding-hidden-connections-in-cyber-data) - [Data Science in Retail](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/586-data-science-in-retail) - [A Brief History of Data Storage](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/974-a-brief-history-of-data-storage) - [Fault Tolerance and Consistency at Scale: Harnessing the Power of Distributed SQL Databases](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1146-fault-tolerance-and-consistency-at-scale-harnessing-the-power-of-distributed-sql-databases) - [Data Science on Software Data](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/162-data-science-on-software-data) - [Data Science, ML & AI in the Oil and Gas Industry at NDT Global - Dr. Katja Träumner](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1308-data-science-ml-ai-in-the-oil-and-gas-industry-at-ndt-global-dr-katja-traumner) ## Related Articles - [Data Engineer Salary UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/253-data-engineer-salary-uk) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Data Analyst Salary in the UK](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/278-data-analyst-salary-in-the-uk) - [5 Reasons Why Attending Conferences in 2026 Matters More Than You Think](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/692-5-reasons-why-attending-conferences-in-2026-matters-more-than-you-think) - [Got AI ideas but no money?
