How this role works

  1. You join the bench. You apply with your weekly hours and start time. We set your hourly rate from your résumé, and we may name you on proposals that match this role. If we don't win, you owe nothing.
  2. A contract is awarded. The award funds the team named in the proposal. Your engagement begins at the hourly rate we agreed on.
  3. You work remote, paid from the contract. ~120–600 hrs per funded award — and if no award ever funds, you owe nothing and lose nothing.

  • Process aerial and drone imagery into orthomosaics and elevation models
  • Collect planimetric features and update GIS layers
  • Check accuracy against ground control and write ASPRS accuracy reports
  • Deliver data in the client's projection, format and tiling scheme

Required qualifications

  • 3+ years in photogrammetry, orthoimagery or remote-sensing production
  • Hands-on with photogrammetry and GIS software
  • Working knowledge of ASPRS accuracy standards
  • U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident (U.S. person)
  • Willing to be named on a federal proposal with a one-page resume, and to sign a short letter of commitment

Preferred qualifications

  • County or state orthoimagery programs
  • Lidar and point-cloud processing
  • ASPRS Certified Photogrammetrist or GISP
