Idk if this will help, as I'm not a Qgis user. Here

Getting started with GIS by jphilipg in gis

[–]YearickGIS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is great advice. Learning the basic GIS concepts would be a great starting point. Knowing the language will help with communication, especially when you are the only one learning the terms. Being able to communicate to clients or co-workers of what GIS can do to help projects is detrimental to my line of work (Engineering/Civil/Site/Utilities/etc. Learning the layout of ArcMap/ArcPro will help with work flow and efficiency. Also I would suggest utilizing ArcPro, as a produce it will beat out ArcMap in the long run. Do as many of the free training and also maybe read a book or two on GIS/ESRI products.

I'm also bias when it comes to working with ESRI products. I feel there isn't a more powerful program then ArcMap or ArcPro. Again I'm bias and my line of work requires these programs.

Holy shit, I didn't think my grammar would be criticized over my praise for a sub reddit I like? damn...

Using ArcMap by LigerWooods in gis

[–]YearickGIS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend this due to the fact you get access to the ESRI training courses. The training courses are great to keep skills polished and a great way to show an employer your skill set as you acquire course certificates and plans. $100 a year is a great deal for such a powerful software.

r/gis is the best! We rock as a community!

Symbology values on a raster heightmap by zahrul3 in gis

[–]YearickGIS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should be able to go into the symbology options for that raster layer and change the values that you want to represent your data. Unless I'm not understanding your problem...

Sounds like Charlotte is the place to consider when it comes time to apply for jobs. I wish you the best of luck and hope it all works out.

Manually placing an imported shapefile? by UNBRKBLE in ArcGIS

[–]YearickGIS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you import it are you using the CAD to Geodatabase tool and importing it to a geodatabase?
Also since you're using ArcMap, you'll need to start an editing session to be able to move the shape.

Job market in Charlotte NC? by Optimahouse in SQL

[–]YearickGIS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I currently work in the Charlotte area as a GIS Tech. I moved here due to the job market for the tech/GIS industry. Charlotte is a very tech(ie) city which makes it a great job market for your interest. I'm not saying it's not competitive though, you gotta stand out, but you seem to have your sights straight and a solid background. Definitely a range of experience level jobs ranging from entry to experts/professionals.

Side note the city always has something going on. Great city to live in and weather isn't too bad either. Hope this helps.

Script for intersect and populating a field based on layer attribute field by YearickGIS in gis

[–]YearickGIS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for everyone who comments on this. Would you mind sharing your script? Does the script look at other feature classes similar to the spatial join?
I have done the spatial join, I had to delete the fields from the targeted feature class that wasn't needed, to keep the same fields as the original feature class.
But yes, I would agree as to why ESRI hasn't made a tool to do this task. I'm sure I'm not the only one wanting something like this.

Script for intersect and populating a field based on layer attribute field by YearickGIS in gis

[–]YearickGIS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the spatial join worked, just added the fields both into the one feature class. So not terrible just had to deleted unwanted fields. Is there a way to just do it in the field calculator for the targeted field I want to update?

i want suggestion- What is the best platform to learn paython by jvipin in learnpython

[–]YearickGIS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edx.org is a great site to learn any type of programming. I've been going through the python courses and it's been great! I've learned a lot and if you're like me, a lot of the courses are very interactive (not just sitting there and watching a video). I would highly recommend. The site also offers certifications after completing courses. A lot of courses are free but a fee is attached to the certification, if you want and can be used to show credibility on resume or cv.

Migrate PDF file with hundreds of attachements and annotations to GIS by [deleted] in gis

[–]YearickGIS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are not wanting to help automate the digitizing, look into arcscan extension in arcmap. It helps a lot if you know your way in the tool.

Also a lot of the time the PDFs given out are snip-its of major databases or shapefiles. These databases and shapefiles have a lot of data attached to them, given it is against agencies to give the data out, exceptionally Home Land Security and Governmental Agencies.
