Urban Forestry Internship

0 Comments

Read Now
 
The City of Hillsboro Planning Department is recruiting college students to inventory Hillsboro’s street tree canopy this fall.  The inventory will help lay the foundation for an Urban Forestry Management Program.

This project involves cataloguing the location, condition, size, and species of trees growing in Hillsboro’s public right-of-way.  Interns will be trained to use ArcGIS-based tree inventory software loaded on handheld computers.  This is an excellent opportunity for students to receive hands-on experience with urban forestry, tree biology, ArcGIS technology, and geography.  Candidates must be highly motivated, detail-oriented, and passionate about advancing an urban forestry project through rigorous field work.

This unpaid internship running from October 12th through November 19th is two weekdays per week from 8am-12pm.  Compensation includes a free Tri-Met Transit Pass.  The part-time nature of this internship and close proximity to a Tri-Met MAX Station accommodate busy academic schedules.  Click here for an a detailed description of the Urban Forestry Internship.  All resumes must be received by Tuesday October 6, 2009.

GIS Volunteer Opportunity @ LCREP

0 Comments

Read Now
 
The Lower Columbia River Estuary Partnership is looking for a GIS volunteer that might be looking to gain some practical experience, or for a project that would fulfill a class requirement.  


Here are some project details:


We are looking to do some very basic hydrologic modeling at one of our habitat restoration sights, which would inform vegetation plantings, placement of large wood in streams, as well as other efforts.  The project would involve relating Columbia River discharge curves to some gauge elevation data that we have on site (this portion of the project is largely done), and then further extrapolating over the entire site using topo survey data, and from these results creating some basic maps to show inundation depth and duration.  The project site is roughly 200 acres.  All of the required data is in our possession, so it would basically setting up a basic model to calculate the inundations throughout the site (based solely on elevation), and then creating some maps to display results.


There will be some assistance by staff, but there is not one staff person who is devoted to this project.   The timeframe is somewhat short - it is something that needs to be completed sometime around October/November.

If you are interested, contact Keith Marcoe, GIS and Data Management Corrdinator, Marcoe@lcrep.org
