In addition to requisite database administration skills, GIS DBAs need to possess some knowledge on geographic information systems. These skills namely include geographic knowledge, but not just placement of states and countries. GIS data is much more advanced, recording changes in elevation, air patterns, pollution and water levels. Mathematical skills are also necessary, as they help DBAs draw correlative relationships between major GIS data sets. GIS DBAs should be aware of how different environmental events impact others and what consequences they may carry to data that's being sorted by them.
Job Overview
GIS DBAs will perform a variety of responsibilities over the course of their careers. Leveraging their technical skill sets, GIS DBAs will support the planning and development of GIS databases, generate reports based on that data and drive the creation of new research methods and computational activities. They're also responsible for data entry, modification and maintenance. Data integrity becomes very important over time, as historical data gets called upon in future research projects as reference points.
Technical Proficiencies
DBAs who work in GIS capacities need to have a unique skill set that combines traditional computer database skills with knowledge of GIS data systems. Commonly required skills include SQL Server, MySQL, ArcGIS Server, .NET, ArcGIS desktop, Visual Basic, SharePoint, and ArcPAD. The Arcline software products are designed specifically for GIS data management, making them an essential item that should be in any GIS DBA's toolbox. Professionals in this field should also know how to extrapolate data from all of these different sources and develop models, theories and relational databases.
Report Generation
Generating reports is one of the foremost responsibilities of GIS DBAs. While scientists may be the geographic subject matter experts, they can't do much without access to the geographic data. Furthermore, with the data in its raw form, it will take them much longer to model and analyze it. This is where the core function of a GIS DBA enters into play. These professionals help query specific data that researchers need access to, then reformat the data into more palatable forms, such as charts and visual graphs.

How to Start a Car Show FundraiserIn Feburary 2016 19,
In Feburary 2016 19,
Choose a theme for the car show. The focus can be on classic cars, low riders, luxury cars or creatively decorated cars.
Decide on a purpose for the car show---this is what draws people to the event. For example, a social service organization would host a car show to raise money for a community service project.
Organize a car show committee---this ensures that all the work of planning and executing the fundraiser isn't placed on one or two people. You should have the following: a chairman to provide direction for the planning of the car show; a treasurer that controls spending, plans a budget, and tracks the funds that are raised; a publicity chair or media organizer, who is responsible for getting the word out about the car show to local media and the community; a sponsorship coordinator, whose aim is to secure cash and in-kind sponsorships from local companies to keep the group's expenses to a minimum. Recruit volunteers to ensure the car show runs smoothly.
Plan a schedule of weekly meetings with your car show committee---invite all members of your organization to attend so that they can stay in the know and contribute ideas.
Secure a venue for the car show fundraiser. The sponsorship chair should try to find a venue to host the event for free or at a discount if at all possible.
Distribute entry information about the car show to local car clubs, car dealerships, college campuses and auto accessories stores---ask permission before posting or leaving fliers. Print out simple fliers with contact and entry information to keep your expenses low.
Launch an informational blog or website about the car show fundraiser so that entrants, potential sponsors and people interested in attending can find out the purpose, location and time information for the show easily.
Hold a meeting with your committee and volunteers at least two days before the car show to ensure everyone knows their roles, when to be at the venue and who to contact if they need any help during the show.
