Growing up in Canada with a life-long fascination for Canadian geography and <br>
the environment, I have always been interested in returning to the country. <br>
Although my family moved to the United States before I entered high school, I <br>
have always kept my <br>
eyes turned north, especially in recent years as I began to read journal <br>
articles about research conducted at the University of Alberta on John Evans <br>
Glacier, located about 80° N latitude. Now I see the opportunity to return <br>
to my birthplace and study <br>
a topic I am passionate about. Graduating next semester with a B.S. in <br>
computer science and engineering and a minor in geographic information <br>
systems, I am especially interested in attending the University of Alberta <br>
for graduate study. <br>
<br>
Geographic information systems (GIS) is a field especially suited to <br>
investigating spatial patterns, unearthing elusive geographic parameters, <br>
modeling diverse scenarios and overlaying spatial data. This semester, in my <br>
advanced GIS course, Spatial <br>
Data Structures and Algorithms, I am part of a team developing a temporal <br>
database and program for tracing historical trading data. My computer science <br>
skills have also been put to use in two summer internship projects, where I <br>
acquired proficiency <br>
with using LIDAR (light detection and ranging) technology, now favored by <br>
NASA in its current 10-year study of Greenland and changes in the ice cap <br>
extent. Through my coursework and project experience, I have also accrued <br>
skills in using Arc/Info, <br>
ArcView, Microstation, and RDBMS software packages, and I am equally <br>
comfortable programming in Visual Basic, C++ and Java. <br>
<br>
For my graduate research project, I would like to investigate methods for <br>
improving current GIS data models to better incorporate time as a variable in <br>
studying climate change. Changes in glaciers and polar environments occur <br>
rapidly, and these changes <br>
become important indicators of broader, potentially catastrophic, global <br>
changes. By developing and applying temporal GIS methods to glaciology, I can <br>
contribute to improved spatio-temporal analysis techniques that will provide <br>
better insights into the <br>
factors impacting the polar environment and glaciers. In addition, I can <br>
discern which temporal methods generally serve as the best predictors, and <br>
provide benefits to the GIS research community that apply to areas other than <br>
glaciology. <br>
<br>
Once completing my master's program, my long-term goals include either <br>
entering the GIS field as a professional consultant or continuing my research <br>
and earning my Ph.D. at another program of international reputation. Having <br>
advanced experience with <br>
temporal GIS technology would make me a valuable consultant to a company, <br>
especially in the twin burgeoning fields of computer science and GIS. If I <br>
decide to continue on the research path, I would be most interested in a <br>
Ph.D. program that allows me <br>
to conduct field research in Antarctica. <br>
<br>
The University of Alberta is an ideal location for my master's degree study <br>
because it allows me to integrate my facility for computer science with my <br>
chosen application area—geology. My academic advisors and my own research <br>
into your university <br>
programs have confirmed your strengths in both computer science and <br>
glaciology, and the recent application of these areas to field research at <br>
Ellesmere Island in Nunavut, Canada, is especially appealing to me. With my <br>
deep-rooted interest in Canadian <br>
geology and recognition of the quality of your university programs, I hope <br>
you will give my application every consideration. <br>
