Job Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled and detail-oriented UAS LiDAR Surveyor & Land Analyst to join our geospatial team. In this role, you will be responsible for the end-to-end workflow of aerial data acquisition and analysis—from planning and executing autonomous drone flights using advanced LiDAR sensors to processing dense point clouds and generating high-accuracy topographic deliverables.
Your insights will directly influence project design, environmental planning, and engineering decisions.
Key Responsibilities
1. Flight Planning & Data Acquisition
Mission Planning: Plan and execute safe, efficient, and compliant commercial UAS (drone) flights utilizing LiDAR and photogrammetry sensors.
Ground Control: Establish and tie in Ground Control Points (GCPs) and Real-Time Kinematic (RTK/PPK) base stations to ensure centimeter-level geospatial accuracy.
Field Operations: Serve as Remote Pilot in Command (PIC), managing field logistics, equipment calibration, and pre-flight safety briefings.
2. LiDAR Processing & Data Analysis
Point Cloud Processing: Trajectory correction, strip adjustment, and boresight calibration of raw LiDAR data.
Classification: Georeference, filter, and classify point clouds into distinct layers (e.g., bare earth, high/low vegetation, buildings, infrastructure).
Deliverable Generation: Create high-quality geospatial assets including Digital Elevation Models (DEM), Digital Terrain Models (DTM), topographic contours, 3D meshes, and volumetric calculations.
3. Compliance & Safety
Regulatory Adherence: Ensure all operations strictly comply with local aviation authorities (e.g., FAA Part 107 in the US, EASA rules in Europe) and airspace restrictions.
Risk Mitigation: Maintain meticulous flight logs, equipment maintenance records, and safety protocols.
Qualifications & Skills
Technical Requirements
Drone Licensing: Valid commercial drone pilot license (e.g., FAA Part 107 or regional equivalent).
Software Proficiency: Hands-on experience with:
Flight Planning: DJI Terra, QGroundControl, or UgCS.
LiDAR Processing: Terrasolid, LP360, DJI Terra, or Rock Cloud.
GIS & CAD: ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, Autodesk Civil 3D, or Global Mapper.
Sensor Knowledge: Familiarity with high-end UAV LiDAR payloads (e.g., DJI Zenmuse L1/L2, Riegl, YellowScan, or Velodyne sensors).
Experience & Education
Education: Bachelor’s degree or Associate’s degree in Geomatics, Surveying, GIS, Civil Engineering, Forestry, or a related field (preferred but equivalent field experience valued).
Experience: 2+ years of professional experience operating commercial drones specifically equipped with LiDAR payloads.
Surveying Fundamentals: Strong understanding of geodesy, coordinate systems, datums, and traditional land surveying principles.
Physical & Logistics Requirements
Ability to travel frequently to remote field sites.
Ability to lift up to 50 lbs of equipment and walk/hike over rugged, uneven terrain in various weather conditions.
Valid driver’s license with a clean driving record.
