Job description
Job Location: Fairfax, Virginia, United States (Onsite/Remote)
Performs development, maintenance, and refinements of ground GPS based structured geodetic control network, spatial grid reference system, and airborne GPS system for aerial photogrammetric data processing and adjustments.
Determine the underlying geodetic vertical and horizontal control geospatial datum accuracy, and reliability; and develop specifications and procedures to accomplish required data standards.
Perform sophisticated data processing and transformations and statistical analysis of ground and airborne GPS data using complex spatial data modeling including on-the-fly solution techniques.
Based on the work required, the consultant may need knowledge and experience with the following: geodetic horizontal and vertical reference datum; national, state, and global spatial coordinate systems; national spatial reference systems (NSRS) data standards; Ground GPS and Airborne GPS data acquisition and processing; geoid modeling and datum transformations; complex network modeling and adjustments; geodetic project planning, designing, and implementation and the application of GPS derived orthometric modeling and adjustment
