Development Team Biography

Christine Evans –GIS Manager
David Casse – Network Administrator
David Koppenol – GIS Specialist
Adam Skeete – GIS Specialist

We all started our positions at St. Tammany Parish Government within a 6 month stretch in 2022. We quickly learned we had the same goals for the GIS Department and utilizing ESRI tools, solutions, applications was at the top of our list.
We needed a new ESRI Enterprise Server first. David Casse, who has been the Network Administrator for St. Tammany Parish for 12 years, was just the man we needed. Together, we formulated a project plan for the GIS Department and had our new ESRI Enterprise Server up and running by March 2023. We identified all employee’s ESRI needs, roles, and how they would access data via ESRI products. We created ESRI accounts and set permissions then went on to educate all employees on how to view data in the through the new Internal/ External ESRI portals.
