Along time ago, I made the decision to get involved with URISA by first becoming a member of the Georgia Chapter. I started attending meetings and getting to know other GIS Professionals. I soon learned how much I did not know and began building a network of professional friends. These friends have helped expand my horizons and show me things I would have never dreamed were possible with GIS. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Soon I volunteered to run for the GA URISA board. That was the start of a new chapter in my professional involvement. I severed on the GA URISA board for a number of years in various positions including President. During this time my network expanded as I made friends with other URISA Chapter Leaders across the US and Canada. I also began to see a larger picture as I became involved with URISA International, the mothership for all the local chapters. I began to see the challenges we were facing at the national and international level with things like data sharing, working with other professions such as Land Surveyors, standardizing data structures, developing best practices and more. That of course lead me to run for the URISA board itself and ultimately to my current position as President Elect for URISA.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Trust me being on a professional board is work but it is very rewarding both professionally and personally. I have built a large network of friends which I have come to rely on for advice, help and people to bounce ideas off of. This is your chance to build and expand your network. It will have positive impacts on your career that you cannot even begin to imagine. So I encourage everyone on this list to seriously consider volunteering for FLURISA. If not FLURISA, the SHRUG or any other professional organization in your area. You will not regret it. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><i><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>Tripp Corbin, MCP, CFM, GISP</span></i></b><b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'> </span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>| Chief Executive Officer</span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:#1F497D'><br></span><b><span style='font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:#1F4E79'><a href="http://www.egisassociates.com/"><span style='color:#1F4E79'>eGIS Associates, Inc.</span></a></span></b><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'><a href="mailto:tcorbin@egisassociates.com"><span style='color:blue'>tcorbin@egisassociates.com</span></a> | <a href="www.egisassociates.com"><span style='color:blue'>www.egisassociates.com</span></a> </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>678-710-9710 ext 21 | </span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>866-</span><span lang=EN style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>304-3864</span><span lang=EN style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:#1F497D'> Fax</span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>Esri Certified Desktop Professional | Esri Certified Enterprise System Design Associate<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'>Order my new book <a href="https://squareup.com/market/egisassociates/learning-arcgis-pro-1"><span style='color:blue'>Learning ArcGIS Pro</span></a> now!<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://squareup.com/market/egisassociates/learning-arcgis-pro-1"><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:blue;text-decoration:none'><img border=0 width=161 height=198 id="_x0000_i1027" src="cid:image004.jpg@01D13BE3.52FF40D0" alt="B04578_MockupCover_Normal_"></span></a><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> shrug-l-bounces@lists.dep.state.fl.us [mailto:shrug-l-bounces@lists.dep.state.fl.us] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Scott Warner<br><b>Sent:</b> Monday, December 21, 2015 11:06 AM<br><b>To:</b> 'shrug-l@lists.dep.state.fl.us' <shrug-l@lists.dep.state.fl.us><br><b>Subject:</b> shrug-l: FLURISA Openings <o:p></o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Good Morning SHRUG,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText>Over the past few years, FLURISA has been growing in popularity and expanding the services which are offered.
