Within the programs he focuses primarily on producing measured and interpretive drawings for engineering sites with the Historic American Engineering Record (HAER). After graduating in 2009, John accepted an internship with HAER, where he was introduced to laser scanning for the first time. For the past three years, John has been developing methods and workflows for converting laser scan data into 3D solid and mesh models to aid in the production of these drawings. He earned his Bachelor’s degree in Architecture from Iowa State University.
