Anthony O'Flaherty

I'm a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) professional working with TasWater. I have a broad range of interests which provide me the mechanism to explore GIS Science and Technology in various ways. I am particularly interested in spatial statistics and visualisation and as a result, proficient in many different desktop processes. More recently I have become focussed on Web GIS, particularly through the ArcGIS Online platform, where complex processes can be effectively and efficiently delivered to stakeholders. I particularly like the concept of Story Maps.

I have 10 years experience in the Vocational Education & Training sector where I was able to refine my skills and knowledge in the training sector, whilst also gaining valuable experience within secondary schooling and higher education contexts, including Steiner education. I was also Chair of Milkwood Steiner School Association for 3 years.

It was my time at TAFE that provided the opportunity to gain valuable field skills in GNSS and topographic surveying.

My experiences and qualifications in science, GIS, data acquisition and education & training mean that I am able to approach new challenges with a unique perspective.
