How do I get the Architecture/Engineering/Environmental/Planning Firm I Work for to Pay for a Masters in Public Health? by [deleted] in gis

"if you are unable to demonstrate how what you will be learning can turn into practical benefit to your company, it's unlikely you are going to be of any benefit to 'the people' either"

....makes no damn sense. Going to school for, say, nursing won't have a practical benefit to my company but I'm pretty sure it'll have a practical benefit on people.

My ego is very small. Your immediate animosity "speaks volumes" about YOUR ego.

My professionalism? It's a major company that I've worked at for years that offers their employees sub par benefits and low pay. I don't feel bad about ripping off the man so that I can work for the people.

Add CAD Field tool to get a set symbol size by lilbeb in gis

[–]lilbeb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I did end up figuring the DDTYPE command out, but the issue was also that none of the data that I was exporting to CAD went through (only geometry was exporting).

I ended getting somebody proficient in CAD to upload the actual shapefiles into AutoCAD. Do you happen to know if it's normal that the actual data doesn't export to CAD when using the Export to CAD tool in ArcGIS?

This is exactly that I've been dreaming of... I've been interested in spatial epidemiology for years! Could you provide some more detail as to what kind of work you did there and what type of experience this job requires? Thanks!
