please post:
Geologist/GIS technician
Starting ASAP
Full time, benefited position
The Arizona Geological Survey (Tucson, Arizona) has a position open for a
Geologist to work on building a geologic geographic information system for
the State of Arizona. The principal job function will be preparing digital
geologic maps by digitizing line work from drafted maps and assigning
attributes to points, lines, and polygons as necessary. Digitizing will be
done using Arc/Info and a table digitizer. Other functions will include
collecting geologic data for inclusion in the database, verifying the
accuracy of data, entering or importing data into tables, building metadata
files, and verifying the accuracy of digital data.
We are seeking someone with experience in digitizing geologic maps into
Arc/Info coverages. The successful candidate must be able to accurately
read geologic and geophysical maps. Geologic map reading skills are
necessary to recognize potential errors on source maps and to assure
consistency and accuracy of the database assembled from different map
sources. Other essential qualifications include familiarity with Arc/Info
and ArcView software through experience in digitizing and manipulating
geologic data using this software. Competency in computer operation, using
the Microsoft Windows NT operating system, is essential. A Bachelor's
Degree in geology or a closely related field (e.g. geography) is required.
Only U. S. Citizens or non-citizens with a visa allowing them to work
should apply.
The position is funded for one year, but we hope to continue funding in
subsequent years. The Arizona Geological Survey is embarking on an extended
program to produce the next generation of 1:100,000-scale geologic maps for
the State of Arizona in digital form.
Hiring rate: $12.85/hr ($26,640/yr). We do not have funds for reimbursing
moving expenses
