Jessica is also a certified UAS pilot for the USGS. additionalType: staff profile page introductory statement - '@type': TextObject abstract: "Jessica DeWitt is a research geographer at the Florence Bascom Geoscience\ \ Center. She received a doctoral degree in Geography from West Virginia University\ \ and a masters in Geography from the University of Toledo, OH. Since joining\ \ the USGS in 2014, she has focused her research on using remote sensing and\ \ geographic information systems (GIS) to map the impact of natural phenomena\ \ and anthropogenic activities on the landscape and the environment. Her research\ \ combines multispectral satellite image analysis and terrain modeling with\ \ geologic, hydrologic, geomorphic data and field mapping to provide detailed\ \ information about areas of topographic change, particularly areas of mining\ \ activity.She has worked on several projects focused specifically on artisanal\ \ and small-scale mining (ASM) occurring in proximity to conflict regions. Her\ \ research on this topic aims to improve understanding of the potential contribution\ \ of ASM to the conflict by quantifying the scope and magnitude of mineral production.\ \ Since ASM production typically occurs in remote and data-sparse regions of\ \ the globe, Jessica utilizes a variety of geospatial methods, including photogrammetry\ \ of stereo satellite imagery, geomorphic and terrain modeling, and high-resolution\ \ image analysis together with geologic and field data to provide the best-available\ \ and most current data for a region. The ASM projects she has worked on include\ \ assessment of diamond ASM in the Central African Republic, Guinea, and Cote\ \ d\u2019Ivoire, gold ASM (ASGM) in Guyana, and ASM of various mineral commodities\ \ in Afghanistan.More recently, Jessica\u2019s research has focused on quantification\ \ of terrain change by integrating 3D analysis of historical aerial imagery\ \ and archival maps with current data. These investigations quantify decades\ \ of terrain change in both naturally and anthropogenically altered regions\ \ such as sand dunes, mountain-top removal/ valley-fill mining areas, and urban\ \ expansion. As part of this body of research, she is collaborating with a Powell\ \ Working Group on topographic change and is part of 2 NRPP projects with the\ \ National Park Service looking at terrain and geomorphic change in Sleeping\ \ Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, MI and Vicksburg National Military Park, MS.Jessica\ \ is also a USGS-certified Remote Pilot in Command (RPIC) and has worked to\ \ advance the use of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in both her own research\ \ and in other projects at the Florence Bascom Geoscience Center." additionalType: personal statement - '@type': TextObject abstract: DeWitt, J., and Chirico, P., 2017, Artisanal and small-scale diamond mining assessment of the Central African Republic, Conference proceedings, Imaging & Geospatial Technology Forum (IGTF) 2017 and the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) Annual Conference, Baltimore, Maryland, March 11-17, 12p. additionalType: staff profile page abstract - '@type': TextObject abstract: DeWitt, J., and Chirico, P.G., 2017, Assessing change in small-scale diamond mining activity across the Carnot region of the Central African Republic, Paper accompanying poster and presentation, Proceedings of the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing Annual meeting, Baltimore, MD., March 14. additionalType: staff profile page abstract email: jdewitt@usgs.gov hasCredential: - '@type': EducationalOccupationalCredential name: Ph.D., Geography, West Virginia University, 2016 - '@type': EducationalOccupationalCredential name: M.A., Geography & Planning, University of Toledo, 2009 - '@type': EducationalOccupationalCredential name: GIS Certification, University of Toledo, 2009 - '@type': EducationalOccupationalCredential name: B.A., Geography, Mary Washington College, 2007 hasOccupation: - '@type': OrganizationalRole affiliatedOrganization: '@type': Organization name: Florence Bascom Geoscience Center url: https://www.usgs.gov/centers/florence-bascom-geoscience-center roleName: Research Geographer startDate: '2024-05-12T15:15:23.512583' - '@type': Occupation additionalType: self-claimed professional experience name: "2014 \u2013 present, research geographer, U.S. Geological Survey, Reston,\ \ VA" identifier: - '@type': PropertyValue propertyID: GeoKB value: https://geokb.wikibase.cloud/entity/Q54509 - '@type': PropertyValue propertyID: ORCID value: 0000-0002-8281-8134 jobTitle: Research Geographer knowsAbout: - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: Multispectral Satellite Image Analysis - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: Geospatial Analysis - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: Artisanal and small-scale mining - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: Fluvial Geomorphology - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: Structure from Motion - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: Terrain Change Quantification - '@type': Thing additionalType: self-claimed expertise name: Unmanned Aerial Systems memberOf: '@type': OrganizationalRole member: '@type': Organization name: U.S. Geological Survey name: staff member startDate: '2024-05-12T15:15:23.510026' name: Jessica DeWitt, Ph.D. url: https://www.usgs.gov/staff-profiles/jessica-dewitt
