More Than Just Maps
Navigating the world of GIS takes more than being able to make a pretty map. Between the science, technology, and artistic design required to be successful in the geospatial field, things can get confusing. Join us as we talk with GIS veterans and geniuses who know a thing or two about how to find your way from student to professional and beyond, while also chatting about some neat tools, tricks, and trends. Presented by the URISA Texas Chapter.

Episode 23
On this week’s episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with Toby Soto of Soto Media and GIS Success.com. Toby got his start in the industry through surveying and drafting while at the City of Riverside, California. It was there this cool new thing called GIS was starting to take off, and Toby jumped in with both feet. His career eventually led him to the county level and several other cities. And all this without a four year degree. We chat about how networking is key for promotions and finding your next job, and he even gives us some tips for introverts.
