 Hello, I'm Dan Steiner. I've been teaching in the areas of business and geospatial intelligence at Penn State since 2019. I hold a BS in engineering from the United States Military Academy at West Point and a master's of Geographic Information Systems from Pennsylvania State University. One of the highlights of my own graduate studies was being awarded the Lieutenant Michael P. Murphy Award in Geospatial Intelligence at the 2018 Geospatial Intelligence Symposium in Tampa, Florida. Geography, mapping visualization and GIS problem-solving have shaped my career from experiences in the United States Army Corps of Engineers, pharmaceutical industry, and now as a small business owner. The Army trained me in terrain analysis, cartography, and remote sensing at the Defense Mapping Agency in Virginia and inter-American Geodetic Survey in Panama. Through 20 years in pharmaceutical operations, sales, and leadership, I honed my GIS skills and applied business principles to spatially related risk assessment and decision-making. Outside of Penn State, I own and operate Orion Mapping, providing business insights, imagery analysis, and geospatial intelligence, location intelligence to commercial government and community clients. I welcome discussing your interests in Penn State graduate studies and answering any questions you have about my own journey as a geospatial intelligence professional. I wish you well in your studies and careers.
