Maxwell GeoSystems Employee Focus- April Chia
In this, our fifth instalment of Employee Focus posts, we shine a spotlight on April Chia, a Data Administrator with Maxwell GeoSystems, based out of the Singapore office. Throughout her time at the company, April has been assisting Geotechnical engineers with data management set-up of the MissionOS, so they are able to handle data, TBM alignments, map images and other project-related data.
Furthermore, April has been involved in a multitude of flagship projects in Southeast Asia, working on DTSS2, Hanoi Metro, CAGE, HDB Alexandra, DAIMS and many more. She helps project engineers to extract datum levels and coordinates of sensitive structures from the longitudinal section into an Excel data entry, by using softwares such as AutoCAD. Apart from that, April handles daily, weekly and monthly reports that are generated from projects, as well as some administrative work.
Across her time on the Hanoi Metro project, April shared with us some of her accomplishments and achievements, by highlighting, “Undertaking the Hanoi Metro project with manual digitisers and information for close to 3,000 sensitive buildings was indeed a significant challenge, as managing vast amounts of data was time-consuming. However, after many hours of manually sorting through the data, it really helped the project get up to speed with their use of MissionOS, and helped ensure safe construction.”
Despite facing the challenge of deafness, April has found effective ways to overcome her communication barriers and is able to actively participate in work. She mentions, “by utilising some of the latest AI enhanced applications, which provide text messaging and subtitling capabilities, I have successfully navigated the virtual landscape and ensured clear communication. It’s heartwarming to know that my team has been supportive, patient and understanding with me to accomplish tasks effectively.” This coming September 2023, will mark her 10 year anniversary with the company!
