Student Testimonial
Sally Kloppe
“Hi, I’m Sally, the GIS Coordinator for the 911 department of my county. The U.S. is moving toward a new NextGen911 system that is 100% GIS-based. My GIS class introduced me to some of the tasks I perform at my job. I work with vector layers of points (addresses), lines (streets), and polygons (fire district boundaries). I put new addresses and streets into the map. I fix issues the dispatchers or first responders encounter with the map. I’m so glad I took Innocensia’s class, and I’m happy I took a chance on this new career!”
