Abstract Details

2013, Master of Environmental Science, Miami University, Environmental Sciences.
This report summarizes my experiences as an environmental scientist professional with the local government of Hamilton, OH. This report outlines my responsibilities over an 11-month fellowship, particularly in regards to use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). It discusses specific projects such as an inflow and infiltration study with the municipality's sanitary system as well as a GIS model constructed to reenact a historic flood event in 1913. This paper presents the steps that initiated the creation of the model and highlights the procedures needed to build an animated model within GIS. This paper discusses some of the challenges and problem-solving processes used in a professional setting.
