I joined Ayres in 2000 as a stereo compilation technician. As a supervisor I play an integral role in developing and maintaining an outstanding lidar processing group. I've led complex lidar missions for projects around the country, including the completion of approximately 50,000 square miles of lidar for local government, state departments of transportation, and the U.S. Geological Survey.
I personally oversees all lidar projects from start to finish, maintaining oversight on all project requirements and ensuring that accuracy expectations are met and deliverables are complete. I have undertaken the responsibility of understanding a variety of nationally recognized accuracy standards that are applied to our lidar mapping projects.
My areas of expertise include:
- Stereo compilation of planimetric map features
- Stereo compilation of topographic map features
- Lidar processing
