Our client is seeking a Certified Photogrammetrist with 5+ years of progressive experience in photogrammetry, aerial imagery production, or related geospatial mapping to be part of our team in Lakewood, CO or Huntsville, AL
. The candidate will be responsible for leading and performing photogrammetric production activities, with an emphasis on aerial triangulation, imagery processing, positioning, orthophoto production, and quality control. This position will help ensure that aerial imagery and related geospatial products meet project specifications, accuracy requirements, and company quality standards.
- Take an active role in coaching, mentoring, and providing technical guidance to less-senior staff involved in photogrammetric and imagery production workflows.
- Research and review project information, including scopes, mapping specifications, control, flight acquisition data, camera calibration information, coordinate systems, and accuracy requirements.
- Participate in client, project team, and subconsultant meetings as the photogrammetric technical specialist when needed.
- Perform and oversee aerial triangulation using Sim Active, including image block setup, tie point generation, ground control integration, bundle adjustment, adjustment review, and troubleshooting.
- Process and evaluate GNSS/IMU positioning data using POSPac and verify trajectory quality and positioning inputs used in photogrammetric production.
- Perform and oversee orthorectification, mosaicking, seamline development, color balancing, image enhancement, and other aerial imagery production tasks.
- Use Adobe Photoshop for controlled image editing, tonal and color adjustments, artifact correction, and other imagery refinements required to meet project specifications.
- Perform QA/QC of aerial triangulation, imagery, positioning, and photogrammetric deliverables to verify completeness, consistency, horizontal and vertical accuracy, and compliance with project requirements.
- Apply a thorough understanding of photogrammetric principles, aerial sensor geometry, camera calibration, ground control, GNSS/IMU data, coordinate systems, datums, projections, and accuracy assessment.
- Develop, document, and improve efficient photogrammetric production and QA/QC workflows, and assist with training new associates on established procedures.
- Adhere to safety, quality, and information security policies.
- Perform other duties as assigned.
- Bachelor's degree in Photogrammetry, Geography, Geomatics, Surveying, GIS, Geospatial Science, Remote Sensing, or a related field is preferred.
- Current ASPRS Certified Photogrammetrist (CP) certification is required.
- Minimum 5 years of progressive experience in photogrammetry, aerial imagery production, or related geospatial mapping.
- Demonstrated experience with aerial triangulation and photogrammetric production using Sim Active software.
- Experience processing and evaluating airborne GNSS/IMU positioning data using POSPac.
- Experience using Adobe Photoshop for professional aerial imagery editing, color balancing, and image quality refinement.
- Strong working knowledge of aerial camera systems, camera calibration, ground control, bundle adjustment, orthorectification, digital elevation data, coordinate systems, projections, datums, and photogrammetric accuracy requirements.
- Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills with a high level of attention to detail and data quality.
- Must have the desire to learn new software, hardware, and methodologies; work well independently and with others; and contribute to an efficient, team-oriented Geospatial environment.
