About the Instructor
Dave Williams has over 15 years of experience in the utility and geospatial industry with a strong background in IT. Dave is the GIS Manager at the Jamaica Public Service Co., one of the largest integrated utilities in the Caribbean. During his time/journey he has worked on numerous projects leveraging the spatial power of data in an electric utility including vegetation, asset, outage management.
Why my course is useful
When a storm blows through, its typically not the wind that interrupts service. It is wind blowing vegetation into utility lines. This is an expensive problem that requires new geographic workflows before and during a storm event.
Why I built it
When I started my career in GIS, I was surprised by the lack of educational content for GIS within the electric industry. All the knowledge was with industry vendors. I built this course to support any GIS analyst who wants to see a common application in the electrical utility industry.
What I hope for you
I hope this content arms you with a stronger portfolio to more quickly enter the utility industry and enable you to hit the ground running to work in vegetation management.

Top reviews from Use GIS To Support Utility Vegetation Management
Good course. I would recommend this to people interested in a huge issue with utitliites.
I like the workflow laid out where mapping informs work crews how to do their jobs. Its not just a paper map.
This course showed me how GIS is incredible at managing any type of issue. Storms, vegetation, loss of power.
Instructor was patient and the demos were informative and easy to follow.
The general GIS support functions were lower level than my other classes. But they were explained really well.
