A Day in the Life of a GIS Analyst Intern
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- This summer, I was an intern at the Connecticut Department of Transportation through the COMTO CITY Intern Program! I did some cool research with highway development, commuter culture, urban planning, crash data, and wetland mitigation! Thanks to @ctdotofficial and @comtoheadquarters for this opportunity!

So good to see a GIS Vlogger
Very quick but thorough day in the life thank you so much!!
Very nice watching your videos
I have just graduated with a master in Geo-information science and earth observation. I am looking forward in landing a job.
You graduated from which University?
@@giddy444university of Twente, Netherlands.
Super cool!
Have any tips on what helped you find the internship
Yeah I can give some advice, I'll make a short and put it somewhere in the comments section
How did you get your internship?
I applied to the COMTO CITY Intern Program, and they matched me with the Connecticut DOT!
Hey Ade Aro,
Hope you are doin well. Just saw your video and I wonder if you can help me out in a GIS internship. Actually I am looking for one. Please do lemme know. I will be grateful to you.
I would say start with where you would want to work, and go from there! There are a lot of public agencies (local, state, or federal government), private firms (architecture/engineering/construction), or non-profit organizations that use GIS. Google, LinkedIn, Indeed, and Handshake are some good websites to find listings. Networking will be your friend though! Reach out to family members, friends, professors, or alumni of your institution who can help you find internships and can even be helpful in getting your resume into the hands of a recruiter
what degrees can be related to this job?
Transportation Planning, Urban Planning, Urban Design, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Geography, Environmental Science, Environmental Studies, Geology, Earth Science, etc. You can also get a certificate or degree in GIS too. Any field related to the natural or built environment helps with GIS! Also, data analytics or computer science degrees can help, as Python can be combined with GIS.
@@AdeAro I completed my Btech in civil engineering in 2023 . Can I apply for this type of interships
@@athulyab.v7837 You definitely can! Having GIS experience would boost your profile
thankss for that, where else can i apply for jobs related to GIS?
Bro, please upload more GIS vlogs like this!! I'm thrilled to have discovered your channel as a GIS Analyst aspirant.
I'm a GIS PM working in the Municipal sector, also in Connecticut, and I was pleasantly surprised to see this VLOG on my feed.--Great work!
I am a GIS coordinator from Sweden 🇸🇪 and I was searching for how GIS in the US describe their work and I came across your vlog. Very interesting and cool editing with high quality video. I wish I could see more of this. Good luck with your career!
Thanks for watching! I studied abroad in Denmark last semester and loved the urban infrastructure of Scandinavia
@@AdeAro bro we need a detailed video on how we can start choosing the best university for a diploma in GIS ? I'm a graduate student in geography that's why I need to know
You know I’m just taking an intro to GIS class because I need to take that class for my major but it’s actually kind of fun and almost feels like my thing I might actually continue pursuing this as a career instead, this gave me more insight to what GIS Developers do, thanks bro!
Starting my self teaching journey and hoping to take a certificate in the spring to get my foot in the door ^^
Jealous. Maybe I’ll try for it

How much u earn as gis analyst
tell me about that laptop case

How long are your work days and weeks? I’m looking into pivoting my career path towards GIS
I was just an intern so I worked 8 hours a day for 10 weeks in the summer, M-F. I only got to telework for a few days days throughout the summer and I got all holidays off (working for the state government in the US)
Oh wow, this is cool! I'm really interested in working in this industry.

hey man really interested in GIS and learning it in college, what is ur major in school and what classes did you take to learn GIS and such?
@@sunsetcola My major is Earth Science and Environmental Studies, and I took a class called GIS and Remote Sensing, it was a basic intro to GIS course with a section on remote sensing at the end
@@AdeAro oh bet thanks man✌️just signed up for a GIS and remote sensing class at my school
Can you make a video on what are the main skills that are needed for the GIS analyst and how can we look for the internship opportunities.
I can make a short and I'll reply to this comment/make a comment and pin it with the link
Taken from another comment: Majoring in Transportation Planning, Urban Planning, Urban Design, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Geography, Environmental Science, Environmental Studies, Geology, Earth Science, Computer Science, Data Analytics, or Graphic Design can help! Knowing how to use Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop can be helpful. It helps to be detail-oriented, tech savvy, a problem solver, and independent thinker. You can encounter errors in GIS and knowing how to troubleshoot them will make your life easier. Practicing getting use to the interface, and get familiar with ESRI products and web applications. In terms of looking for opportunities, public agencies (local, state, or federal government), private firms (architecture/engineering/construction, etc), or non-profit organizations can be a good start. Google, LinkedIn, Indeed, and Handshake are some good websites to find listings. Networking will be your friend though! Reach out to family members, friends, professors, or alumni of your institution who can help you find internships and can even be helpful in getting your resume into the hands of a recruiter
Gotta get those walks away from the screen so you dont get tunnel vision. ❤🌍🗺️
i’m in my final year at university, thinking of doing my honours in GIS ❤
Hi! I am going to apply to university soon and the faculty of geography in this university has a cartography program. I've heard that you can become a GIS Analyst through this program and I was wondering what exactly does it mean. I googled it and it looks interesting but I don't understand the depth of this job. If you could give me some more info, I would gladly appreciate!
I was looking to working in tech at the local PD. Learned about Police Systems analyst. Now im here.
Such a fan of your vlog, its really aspiring
Love the video! Great work!
Thanks a lot!
Where are you working as GIS Analyst? I wanna do that too in Canada!
Lmao dope GIS vlogger
you can tell your coworkers really care about you!
what a video bro bravo
Salary?
How much experience in GIS did you have before applying?
I took one class at my school titled GIS and Remote Sensing!
@@AdeAro How do you practice outside of internships? My school doesn’t this much on GIS but it seems cool!
hello.i am doing bechelor degree in geography and enviroment.its my final year and want to get a intership in gis analyst but don't know how to get it?
Look around on resources like LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, and Handskane! You'd also be in a good position to ask your advisor, professors, or school's career office to see if they have any contacts at any companies. Networking is key in terms of gaining contacts in the professional world and building your "personal brand" in your career. Also, talk to your friends and classmates to see what they've been applying to or what internships they've held in the past. Also, since you're graduating, some companies have rotational fellowship programs where college graduates spend 1-2 years rotating around different units, and then they choose one to work with full-time. Hope this helps!
If I do Diploma in gis can I get job
How can I learn and start my career as a GIS specialist?
Check if your school has access to ArcGIS or QGIS for students! You can even start by playing around with Google Earth Pro. Take classes in GIS, Remote Sensing, and Geography. Depending on the field/industry that you want to go into, try and do some self-directed research projects, or maybe email around and see if you can get someone to supervise your work or work on their project. I would recommend making maps, ArcGIS Story Maps, or videos to help build your portfolio so you have tangible things to show people. There are also PDFs with GIS exercises that you can work through
Do we need degree to become GIS Analyst?
It will likely depend on the job posting requirements, it could be possible to substitute a degree with work experience or previous/current projects
@@AdeAro I'd like to teach myself GIS in slow pace without degree
Adepoju what did u have for lunch
I had chicken ramen with eggs and veggies
