  3. Five minutes with an Esri Australia trainer – Angus Hooper

    Angus HooperTake a moment to get to know one of the stars in our training team.

    What are you responsible for?

    In my role as a consultant within Customer Care at Esri Australia, I work to ensure our clients are learning best practise to help leverage GIS in their business processes. I also work within the technical support space on topics such as ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Online, Collector for ArcGIS and Python.

    What do you love most about your job?

    Engaging with a passionate client who is pushing the boundary of what GIS can do and how their team or organisation can get the most out of their data.

    Getting out of the office and away from the desk to help clients on-site can be a very rewarding experience, and is a core component of my job satisfaction.

    How did you end up at Esri? What’s your career background?

    I began working for Esri Australia as a graduate after completing a science degree specialising in remote sensing and GIS at the University of Queensland.

    My work experience with CSIRO and the Queensland Climate Change Centre of Excellence (QCCCE) while at university highlighted the capability of applying GIS within the government and science sector.

    What’s the coolest thing you’ve learned since being in this role?

    The advances in satellite imagery constantly surprise me, especially within the area of ‘free imagery’. For example, the new images from the Sentinel missions at the European Space Agency are pretty outstanding and would have been very helpful during my degree!

    The decentralisation of spatial analytics from the expert to the non-user via web GIS is also an interesting area that I have been paying close attention to.

    Why do you enjoy conducting training sessions?

    Problem solving. Students attend my courses with pre-conceived notions of what GIS is and an inbox tray full of interesting problems and conundrums that they are facing with their workflows.

    Conducting project work does have its advantages, but it is refreshing and rewarding to dip into another client’s project during the difficult portion and help out as much as I can.

    What’s your advice to clients considering undertaking some training?

    I would recommend asking what options there are for client exclusive courses as I find that my students get the most out of these lessons due to their tailored nature.

    What Esri training course would you like to undertake – and why?

    Exploring ENVI to brush up on my ENVI skills from university. Spectral analysis is, in my opinion, the most powerful tool that GIS has to offer and ENVI is perfect for this.

    Outside of work – what’s your idea of fun?

    The mountain bike trails at Stromlo in Canberra are great but my wallet does not enjoy this as much.

    We are also very lucky to have the national cultural institutions located in Canberra so there is always an exhibition or opening on.

    What’s one thing people don’t know about you?

    I currently have an artwork and ongoing project that I helped create with Judy Watson which is on display at the National Gallery of Australia.

    At Esri Australia, we’re all about geography – so where’s your favourite destination in the world?

    Behramkale, Turkey. If you find yourself in the area then it is well worth a detour for a couple of days.

  4. Buy now, train later

    It’s that time of year again, leading up to the end of financial year, when we are tallying up our costs and expenditures, and getting our budgets in order.

  5. Thoughts from the front row

    Over the past two days, I had the pleasure of being MC for the first two cities of the Directions Live 2016 roadshow as we kicked off the tour in Melbourne and Adelaide.

    As the MC I got a front-row seat for all of the Esri Australia and guest presentations, and I thought I’d take the opportunity to jot down some thoughts on the key themes that stood out for me. So here goes …

    Building a system of engagement

    To deliver the highest value from your investment in GIS you need to share the information it holds with everyone in your organisation in a way that supports collaboration and self-service. John Hasthorpe described this as turning your system of record in to a system of engagement where everyone in your organisation can engage with your GIS in a decentralised way. The role of the GIS Professional is not just to manage the system of record but to empower individuals so that they can generate their own maps, spatially enable their own data, and freely share their information products with their stakeholders.

    Web GIS removes your capacity bottlenecks

    We are witnessing a rapid acceleration in the use of mapping and geospatial analysis across many of the organisations we work with but there is often an obstacle constraining this growth due to the capacity of the GIS team to keep up with this growing demand. Web GIS, delivered through ArcGIS Online and Portal for ArcGIS, is the enabler for self-service mapping so this accelerating demand can be met by your systems without overwhelming the GIS team.

    There are many paths to geo-enlightenment

    In Simon Jackson’s first talk he made the point that there is no one-size fits all approach to bringing Web GIS to your organisation. I’ll leave it to Simon to explain but combining  all the options for deploying ArcGIS Online, Portal for ArcGIS and ArcGIS Server either together or separately there’s no excuse to not become geo-enlightened with Web GIS.

    It’s all about apps, apps and apps

    With over one hundred ready-to-use applications to connect your GIS information with your users, Alex Geer made it abundantly clear there’s rarely a need for custom development these days when you can just pick something off the shelf that will suit your needs. Once you’ve made your key geospatial datasets available through your Web GIS it’s then time to start helping your users find the right app for their needs, whether it  be a web app template, a native smartphone app, an integration to your existing business system, or using a builder to customise an app without ever seeing any custom code.

    And more apps just keep on coming!

    The number of ready-to-use applications continues to grow at a frenetic pace. We heard from Josh Venman who showed us some of the apps that will be joining the ArcGIS Platform throughout 2016, including Drone2Map for easily converting your photos into 3D models, Workforce for ArcGIS for coordinating your field workers, and Insights for ArcGIS enabling a whole new approach to geographic analysis. Judging from the reaction of the delegates in Melbourne and Adelaide this week, these are all very keenly anticipated apps that are going to be in high demand.

    There was so much more than this packed into each day, but for me these points stood out as key for putting your organisation on the path to geo-enlightenment!
