Juan Marcel Campos

Juan Marcel Campos is a geologist and GIS professional currently serving with the Bureau of Economic Geology (BEG) at The University of Texas at Austin. In this capacity, he contributes to the Statewide Aggregate Mapping Project, providing stakeholders with actionable intelligence for resource management. He focuses on the systematic identification and assessment of sand, gravel, and crushed stone, while advancing high-priority industrial and critical minerals initiatives. His work bridges the gap between field operations and strategic planning by coordinating large-scale site access for geological sampling, developing robust, scalable data schemas, and delivering comprehensive resource inventories that support long-term infrastructure and industrial development.

He combines expertise in geochemistry, petrology, and remote sensing to advance geological research, utilizing LiDAR and Red Relief Image Maps for high-resolution surface characterization. Beyond mineral resource assessment, he engages in broader geophysical and environmental analysis, including USGS-standard river hydrology and earthquake monitoring initiatives. He bridges these analytical methods with field-based ground verification and custom-built automation tools—developed in Python and JavaScript—to streamline complex data workflows. Committed to operational excellence, he ensures all deliverables meet stringent standards, including WCAG 2.1 accessibility and ISO 9001:2015 quality management frameworks.
