I am a Chartered Geographer (GIS), work for my limited company named "EGIS Solutions Ltd.“, have more than 15

years experienced in various GIS and Data Management roles in Environment, Planning and Development sectors.

I offers expert , professional and cost effective services interfacing GIS, Data Management and sectors such as

Environment, Renewable Energy, Water, Transportation, Water Utilities etc. I promise to serving clients using

the most efficient technology and by offering no nonsense and practical solutions.

My background enables me to easily understand, communicate and apply the most appropriate and effective

solutions to problems arise due to interactions among built environment and Environmental & Ecology, Human and

Physical Environment.

This service is suitable for small to medium companies who don’t want to setup a permanent GIS facility or do need

additional GIS support. I have experiences in providing GIS supports to all phases of a project cycle. The spatial extent

of the projects ranges from small to medium and national levels encompassing a range of disciplines such as:

Surveys:• Bird

GIS and Data Management Experience– Offshore Wind Project

Main responsibility is to provide GIS and data management supports to the Consent, Environment, Engineering,

Land and other general work streams for the project. I have been involved since the inception of the project and

led the GIS support to submit the planning application to the Planning Inspectorate.

Presently I am proving GIS and Data Management support to the post application activities and FEED studies, design

and procurement processes.

Highlights of Support provided:

• Manage GIS data to a high standard, ensuring that all relevant data is retained and can be easily retrieved

• Setting and enhancing the systems and processes used for GIS and Data management in line with TCE ZDA’s

data clause requirement.

• Manage Data licensing conditions.

• Liaise with the regulatory bodies and contractors and surveyors regarding data and metadata standards.

• Support and advise the client and contractors best and efficient practice of the data handling and analysis

• Ensure suitable GIS management clauses are included within contracts issued to relevant third parties

• Conduct data procurement bringing best value

• Overseeing all audits on GIS data, ensuring all corrective actions identified are followed up and overseeing all

GIS data handovers to and from the Origination and Development team.

• Day to day GIS administration and data processing

• Coordinate and manage the purchasing, acquisition and renewal of datasets

• Develop data management and quality control procedures as required

• Oversee the map production and cartography

• Landscapefeaturelayers (e.g. Hedges, Hard Featuresetc.)

• Leader lines

• Landscapefeaturelayers (e.g. Vegetation, Hard Featuresetc.)

Creating separate layers using “layer” field info in the CAD drawing

• Converting Landscape and

Environment CAD drawing

into Highways Agency’s

Environmental Information

System (EnvIS)

• Developed a semi-

automated CAD to GIS

attribute conversion

method.

• Recognized as one of the

most comprehensive

datasets received to date

by EMT.

• Created a worked example

for others experiencing

building an EnvIS dataset.



Time series analysis of river channel movement

3D Modelling of Ground Strata

• Used GIS and Database techniques in

multiple disciplines such as AQ,

Contaminated Land, Drainage,

Ecology, Highways, Noise, Surface

water and Transportation etc.

• Created 3D ground model.

Time series of Satellite Imageries of

different resolutions and bands were used

to delineate the river channels to study the

channel movement.



Spatial Multi-criteria Decision Analysis

Wind, Solar and Hydro

power technologies were

appraised in terms of their

potential spatial

application across the

Highways Agency estate.

GIS model was created

including the Agency

network, incorporating

various spatial constraints

for selected technologies

(e.g. designated sites,

wind resource). This model

was then used to identify

and quantify potential

opportunity areas for

renewable energy.

• Developed and implemented multi criteria GIS model to

priorities outfalls in HA network.

• Combination of various spatial and statistical techniques

with huge volume of data.

• Developed Excel database with the facilities to change the

weighting of different parameter to get instant changes in

prioritization of outfalls.



Contaminated Land: Assessment of Soils for Human Health

• Developed based on MS Access database and ArcGIS to

assess contam parameters.

• The output is a borehole location map with occurrence of

contaminants failure comparing with some set of

assessment criteria.



Transportation – Route Analysis

PPG13 states that, where a new

development is likely to have

significant transport

implications, a Transport

Assessment (TA) should be

prepared and submitted with a

planning application for the

development.

Measurement of accessibility is

an important part of a TA and

isochrones is one of the ways to

assess the accessibility which is

defined as a line drawn on a map

connecting points at which

something occurs or arrives at

the same time.

Isochrone-based measures tend

to be more easily understood as

they are expressed in units

(usually time) and are also split

into simple categories (usually 0-

15 minutes, 15-30 minutes, etc.).

Map FactoryThis system uses MS Access Database for retrieving the tile information

using input X and Y coordinate and uses ESRI’s free ArcGIS Explorere to

show the tiles on a map. This system can be used without having MS

access installed and it comes with the necessary installation files needed

for ArcGIS Explorer.

Inputting XY of the location (can be determined by Post Code

using the given web link Dreamhoster or Streetmap) and a

buffer distance it will determine which tiles covers the area

Shows list of tiles, hovering the mouse on the names of

the data types will show snapshot of the raster data to

help the selection of the appropriate type.

Choose the map type

and upon clicking on

“Launch ArcGIS

Explorer” button it open

the tiles.A typical project location map – can be export and printed as pdf

to use in the report.
