How GIS Analysis & Mapping works in SkillScorer
Score
Each surveyor in a survey team is scored on the GIS Analysis & Mapping skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank surveyors, compare two side by side, or compare your survey teams against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which GIS Analysis & Mapping skills need attention. Reports also follow each party chief's survey team.
GIS Analysis & Mapping scorecard: common questions
What skills does the GIS Analysis & Mapping scorecard include?
SkillScorer's GIS Analysis & Mapping scorecard covers 10 skills: Spatial Data Collection and Management, Coordinate Systems and Data Quality, Spatial Analysis and Modelling, Cartographic Design and Map Production, GIS Software Proficiency, Database and Geodatabase Skills, Scripting and Workflow Automation, Web Mapping and Dashboards, Remote Sensing Basics and Understanding Client Needs and Presenting Results. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are surveyors scored in GIS Analysis & Mapping?
Every surveyor is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one survey team and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with GIS Analysis & Mapping?
GIS Analysis & Mapping starts with these levels (called “Seniority Level” in the app): Graduate, GIS Officer, GIS Analyst, Senior Analyst and GIS Manager. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the GIS Analysis & Mapping skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In surveying & geospatial the app talks about surveyors, survey teams and party chiefs, and you can change any of those words too.
