Jeff Jalbrzikowski P.S. GISP CFS

 Appalachian Regional Advisor, National Geodetic Survey
Mr. Jalbrzikowski began his geospatial career when he enlisted in the U.S. Army in July 2001 as a Field Artillery Surveyor, assigned to provide conventional and IMU-based survey control for emplacement and targeting. He’s had stints with a land development firm performing construction and boundary/ALTA surveys, as a cadastral surveyor with the Bureau of Land Management (Oregon State Office), and as a GIS technician with multiple employers. Mr. Jalbrzikowski spent nine years in a land surveyor role at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Pittsburgh District. Throughout his varied career he has been involved in a wide assortment of field and office functions, including structural deformation monitoring, geodetic control surveys around the globe, boundary/ cadastral retracement, terrestrial lidar scanning, parcel and utility network digitization into GIS databases, single- and multi-beam hydrographic surveys, aerial lidar data processing, local/legacy datum resolution, as well as contract selection, negotiation, and administration for an even wider variety of geospatial projects. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Surveying and Mapping from the University of Akron, Ohio. His role as a Regional Advisor is to assist the public in utilizing the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS), and any other products and services that NGS provides.
