Caleen has been working as a professional geologist for over 30 years. All this work leads to a need for a lot of documentation; that means there were numerous reports and papers written. As she worked in a broad range of geological areas the writing took many forms. For example: property reports, often confidential, for clients; papers (sometimes reviewed) for publication; or a manual for general access posted through a website Online. The subject matters within earth science ranged from exploration for minerals to marine sediments and remote sensing.
During her career Caleen acquired expertise in the management and technical aspects of both field and data analysis projects. These projects included mapping, research and reporting as a part of exploration for a range of economic materials, from precious to industrial minerals. At other times work performed, for example, was preliminary for a national park assessment or analyzing data for abandoned mine databases / websites. Digital analysis has been an important part of much of this work including statistical analysis, inventory databases and GIS applications. Various forms of remote sensing were used in some of this work and is an area where she is working to expand her understanding and use.
