DIGITAL GRAPHICS GPS
TRAINING
|
On June 18th
2008, Jay Bailey, Engineer with Clinton Utilities Board came to
Tennessee Technology Center at Jacksboro and spent the day with the
Digital Graphics Technology class. The first half of the day Mr. Bailey
spent in the class room and delivered a great lecture on the theory and
working principles of GPS technology and how it is used in today’s
working environment. After lunch Mr. Bailey took the entire class out
side where they spent the next 2 hours covering campus and taking GPS
readings in several places around the school. As you can see in the
pictures below that there was a great turn out and the students really
seem to take part and enjoy the outing. After the class had finished
gathering their data they returned into the building at which point in
time Mr. Bailey proceeded to instruct the class in the proper way to
remove the data from the GPS data collector and import it into there
digital map. Once all the data had been imported in the digital map Mr.
Bailey proceeded to explain why the industry uses some of the standards
that the students were introduced to.
After the day was finish Mr. Bailey
announced to the class that Clinton Utilities Board had a job opening in
the mapping department and the Utilities Board would love to hire a
person from this class. Mr. Bailey followed by asking for resumes and
wishing every one good luck in the future.
After several weeks of interviewing a
lot of great candidates Mr. Jay Bailey and Clinton Utilities Board have
decided to offer the open position to Richard Oliver in the DGT class.
