What are the responsibilities and job description for the GIS Data Validation and Corrosion position at Umanist Staffing?
We are seeking a contract resource to complete distribution casing data validation between GIS and the Corrosion Database. This role is critical for ensuring compliance with code-required monitoring and mitigating external corrosion issues.
Responsibilities
- Audit and field-verify all casings in GIS to ensure they are included in the Corrosion Database.
- Verify the following for each casing:
- The carrier pipe is steel (not always shown in GIS, as material type could be null).
- Ensure the pipe has not been replaced with plastic.
- If the pipe has been replaced with plastic, no further monitoring is required.
- A test point is on the casing, or a vent is present (can view this check from Google Earth).
- A test point is within 100 feet of the casing.
- Determine if the casing is shorted to the carrier pipe.
- Enter the casings into the Corrosion Database and take field readings to comply with monitoring codes.
- Project Plan
- All casings in GIS need to be audited and field-verified to ensure they are in the Corrosion Database. We estimate the verification will take approximately 3 months to complete. We have over 3,000 casings in GIS, but only 350 in our Corrosion Database. Each line item takes approximately 8 minutes to evaluate. We have completed 267 casings to date, and 3,000 remain. This is approximately 400 hours of work.
Key Skills
- Experience in data validation and GIS.
- Knowledge of corrosion monitoring and mitigation techniques.
- Attention to detail and accuracy in data entry.
- Ability to conduct field verifications and audits.
- Proficiency in using Google Earth for verification purposes.
- Certifications & Licenses: CAPA
- This role is essential for closing out the casing CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Action) and ensuring compliance with required monitoring standards. Your oversight and support will be crucial in completing this compliance-required analysis.
