Hello, my name is Charles Altendorf and it is my honor to run for KAMP director. I have 7 years of GIS experience. I am well versed in AutoCAD, ArcMAP, ArcPRO, ArcGIS online and QGIS. I am currently a GIS Planning Specialist at Hardin County Water District No.1. I maintain GIS records for county water, assist with Fort Knox water records, analyze GIS equipment, and come up with software solutions. Our conversion to mainly open-sourced based data won the URISA Exemplary Systems in Government Certificate of Achievement.

I have been a KAMP member officially for about 2 years. I have already contributed my ideas to KAMP in the form of 3 straight years of presentations and look to forward to moderating this year. If elected, I plan to use the KAMP director role to start an open-source sub-committee. I look forward to meeting and serving all the great membership of the Kentucky Area Mapping Professionals.
