Hydrograhic Data Processor, Cartographer

I have experience in GIS/CAD, geodesy and geomatics, water resource, Data Processing and Cartography in petroleum production and exploration company for pipeline and marine installation and construction activities (I have BOSIET and OGUKfor go offshore). Good knowledge of MS Office, AutoCAD (2D/3D), ESRI ArcGIS for GIS analysis, ArcPad for GIS mobile and GPS mapping, HEC-RAS and HEC-geoRAS for rivers and streams hydraulic modelling, EPA-Net for hydraulics calculation, Surfer and Autodesk Map 3D for terrain modelling, contouring and 3D surface mapping, EIVA Naviedit and Navimodelfor offshore Data Processing (MBES and Dual Head ROV), Autochart for cartography about pipe/cables constructions. Generally, I haven't problem with new software and have curiosity for new tecnology in GIS/CAD environment, I have ability to adapt quickly to new software packages. Sure I enjoy working with data, with GIS data and digital cartography. During my studies in Environmental Engineering and some work experiences I became more confident with GIS software, in particular ESRI ArcGIS but also other open source such as QGIS, for 3D point cloud editing, managing of georeferenced database, 3D digital modellization of terrain / seabed.
This helped my to find jobs in the Oil&Gas industry are as Offshore Data Processor (multibeam echosounder, charting, bathymetric survey) and now I am very confident with EIVA NaviModel + NaviEdit software for make geo-referenced database, cleaning data (also LiDAR), digitalize object (pipes or cables), produce profiles and cross section in specific formats of this industry.
