NV5 Geospatial is hiring a Remote Sensing Technician (RST). The RST is a field based position that collects aerial survey data with topo and bathymetric LIDAR as well as thermal, hyperspectral, and multispectral imagery sensor systems throughout North America. Alternatively, the RST will be collecting ground data using GNSS survey tools, water monitoring tools, thermal loggers, spherical camera, and mobile LIDAR mapping systems. In the aerial application the RST’s work closely in a collaborative team environment with a captain in small aircraft/helicopters while flying acquisition missions. When collecting control on the ground, the RST will work in a solo environment in remote locations. Examples of collection areas would be urban roads, deep forest, mountainous, agriculture, and riverine environments. RST's configure and monitor sensor systems, track acquisition progress, download/process/ship geospatial datasets to production offices.
