About the Role - GIS Data Editor
The use of GIS and specialist databases and systems are essential for the effective delivery of the Public Rights of Way & Access function. The use of technology benefits all key elements of the Service - legal definition, maintenance, promotion and development.
Key to the Service is the provision of quality information. The Service is currently delivering an Active Travel England funded project looking at the fragmentation of the public rights of way network available to equestrians and cyclists.
You will assist in capturing information during the second phase of the project. This is a desk-based assessment of on-road 'connecting' links to help identify where improvements to these links can be made. This will ultimately help to inform a follow-on program of prioritisation and future actions.
What is the day-to-day of the role:
Follow an established methodology and reference Google Maps Street view, and additional data sets, to carry out a desk-based assessment of linear routes.
To edit GIS data, capturing attributes, using ESRI ArcGIS software.
To carry out work to a high quality to ensure accuracy and integrity of the data.
