Obama for America - GIS Editing Volunteers
Organization: Obama for America
Title: GIS Editing Volunteers
Location: Worldwide (Must be US Citizen or legal resident of the USA)
Application Deadline:
Posted: 2008-09-26
Position Description:
We have some extremely important work for GIS specialists that are willing to lend their data editing expertise to our campaign. We are updating precinct shapefiles we have to bring them up to 2008 changes and vastly improve their accuracy.
Why is this important? The ground game we have in place is the largest ground game in the history of political campaigns. An example of this is Virginia where we have not one but 44 campaign headquarters throughout the state. So we have boots on the ground, but in many case they are using poor quality and outdated precinct files, so the work we do here could make a major impact in states like New Hampshire, Virginia, Ohio, New Mexico, Michigan, Missouri and Pennsylvania. But we need to do this now and we need to do it fast.
I put together a 10-page help document (here: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=ddpmrpng_11ffh4gxgm) that includes about 20 minutes worth of training video’s. It’s not a lot, but read/watch them thoroughly. If we end up with 100 editors, we will fail if we have 100 different methods producing different results.
After you’ve studied these and decided you want to help, please complete this non-disclosure agreement (http://my.barackobama.com/page/-/documents/NDA.pdf) and scan and email (dgalt@barackobama.com) or fax it to me at (312) 268-7094. If you fax it, send me an email to tell me you have done so, so I can let you know if I did not receive it. Also, in your email, please include your name, city and state so we can add you to one of our regional users groups. When you email us back, please (PLEASE!) use a Gmail account if you have one. We use Google Groups, and Google documents to organize our work and we’ve had numerous issues with other email address domains.
After I receive your info and NDA, I’ll add you to our user groups and send you the MXD/data package for one of the states we are updating (you’ll need ArcGIS 9.2 or 9.3 for this). This is an ongoing process that is working. We have already completed some smaller, but key states and now it is time to scale up and tackle some larger states. The work we’re doing here will directly affect our efforts to allocate the right resources to the right precincts, get out the vote, and ultimately to put Barack Obama in the White House and to change our country for the better. If you have viewed the help doc, and think you can do this (Yes you can!) please send in your info right away as time is short.
