- Professional Experience
-
Graduate Research Assistant (January 2023 - Present)
Department of Civil, Environmental,and Geomatics Eng., Florida Atlantic University
Boca Raton, Fl
- Developed an innovative approach that integrates GIS with hydrologic modeling to predict potential flood areas in Florida, based on FEMA methods.
- Conducted geospatial research and created high-quality maps, enhancing my lab’s capabilities in flood risk assessment.
- Leveraged high computation and regression analysis to model groundwater behavior, which significantly improved the accuracy of flood risk predictions.
- Created Python automation codes (model builder & tool development) which reduced the geoprocessing time by 50%.
- Produced a comprehensive flood risk reports, effectively presenting the project's findings to stakeholders.
-
Surveyor (Nov. 2022 - January 2023)
Denys Engineers
Accra, Ghana
- Spearheaded the creation of a highly accurate DEM for underground pipe installation using drone and survey-grade GPS.
- Designed accurate road alignments and profiles by utilizing GPS data in AutoCAD.
- Established Ground Control Points (GCPs) for all survey activities, facilitating consistent and precise data collection.
-
Mining Surveyor (Sept. 2020 - August 2021)
AngloGold Ashanti, Iduapriem Limited
Tarkwa, Ghana
- Utilized Surpac, Civil 3D, and Datamine software to design mine ramps, drill and blast layouts, and calculate material volume from mining operations, resulting in significant operational improvements.
- Skillfully conducted ore mark-out surveys, pit surveys, and contributed to boundary and farm demarcation, enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of mining operations.
- Employed UAV technology to document internal and external engineering projects faster, demonstrating adaptability and embracing modern surveying techniques that saves both engineers and surveyor’s time and money by 30%.
- Effectively used project management tools to control 60% of all GIS works within the Mining Department (coordinate systems transformation, spatial data processing and analysis, data management, geodatabase creation, digitization of maps, and others).
- Collaborated with other departments such as geoscience, engineering, and sustainability as a way of building strong team work.
