 Hi, my name is John David Chronix. I go by JD. I originally didn't start out in the GIS field, I started out in the chemistry field many years ago. And over the years, I kind of made a natural migration towards technology and in particular the application of spatial technology to transportation. I've done a lot of work over the years with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, which is close to where I live. I live in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. And I've really had many opportunities with them and with other state DOTs to see the different ways that spatial technology can be applied to transportation. In my spare time, I like to travel with my family. My wife is from China, so we have the opportunity to travel to China every couple of years. I like to explore other places. I've been to Italy, Mexico City to name a few. Within the U.S., we like to travel to Maine a lot. We've been to Bar Harbor many times. I like the combination of the ocean and the mountains. So anyway, enough about me. I certainly look forward to meeting you all in your class and we can learn about some many ways that GIS can be applied to transportation.
