GIS Connects Urban Planning and Data Visualization

[BrittainCorbett]

It is nice to meet you all! I am new to the Esri YPN group. I had heard about this group for years, but decided to join after attending the Esri UC this month.

My name is Brittain Corbett. I am currently a graduate student studing urban planning at the University of Utah with key interests in urban informatics, smart growth technology, land use planning, transit-oriented development, and transportation demand management. I hope to connect with many of you here! Feel free to follow me on LinkedIn: Brittain Corbett | LinkedIn

As a side note, I am refining my portfolio in preparation of graduating next year. Can I see some examples you have used and have found to be successful to creating a successful portfolio?

There's also a great YPN webinar about building your portfolio, you can check out the recording here: https://www.esri.com/en-us/webinars/corporate-programs/building-a-gis-portfolio-that-opens-doors-web...

Hi Brittain, welcome to the Esri YPN community! Your interests in urban informatics and data visualization are very interesting. Have you considered using ArcGIS StoryMaps to present your urban planning projects and explain both the methodology and the impact of your analysis? I think it could help make your portfolio more engaging and accessible. I look forward to seeing your work!
