David Imus's winning US Wall Map is getting a lot of press. To listen to the OBP interview with Mr. Imus, go to this Think Out Loud episode:
http://www.opb.org/thinkoutloud/shows/job-cartography/ "American mapmaking’s most prestigious honor is the “Best of Show” award at the annual competition of the Cartography and Geographic Information Society. The five most recent winners were all maps designed by large, well-known institutions: National Geographic (three times), the Central Intelligence Agency Cartography Center, and the U.S. Census Bureau. But earlier this year, the 38th annual Best of Show award went to a map created by Imus Geographics—which is basically one dude named David Imus working in a farmhouse outside Eugene, Ore."

PacifiCorp is looking for two GIS supervisors; one position is open now (see www.pacificorp.com/car/op.html) and the other will be opening soon. Each position heads up the two separate groups in GIS that report to the Director of GIS Support Services. The Production group is responsible for keeping the distribution system and connectivity updated. For now, this is predominately a CAD shop. The solutions group does more traditional GIS analysis, map production, data requests/reporting, etc.
