## Description

Position requires experience in sensor or swath calibration and alignment adjustment. Preferred experience using mainstream commercial software suites (Bayesmap StripAlign, TerraSolid Products) or adjustments done in sensor vendor specific suites (Optech LMS, Riegl RiProcess,). Candidate should have strong conceptual understanding of sources of error in airborne lidar datasets and visualizing translation and orientation errors. Experience in alignment of terrestrial, mobile, UAV lidar datasets, or experience in academic environments is also desirable. Additional preferred candidate experience would include airborne lidar trajectory processing (Applanix PosPac MMS, Novatel Inertial Explorer), and in extracting lidar using sensor vendor specific processing suites (Riegl RiProcess, Optech LMS, Teledyne CARIS, GeoCue True View EVO). Strong candidates will also have a strong understanding of aerial acquisition, GPS ground survey, and bathymetric calibration.
Quality checks on data post acquisition

 * Airborne and/or mobile trajectory processing
 * Processing and extraction of Lidar data from raw formats
 * Performing relative and absolute adjustments to Lidar data (calibration/alignment/registration)
 * Perform QA/QC on processed data to ensure it meets rigorous accuracy requirements
 * Review and validate post-processed LiDAR data sets for completeness and accuracy.
 * Verify that data meets point density, spatial distribution, and classification requirements.
 * Perform quality checks against project specifications, industry standards, and client guidelines.
 * Assess point cloud characteristics including noise, gaps, overlap, and vertical/horizontal accuracy.
 * Document QA/QC findings and communicate results to project managers and technical staff.
 * Create a variety of digital mapping/remotely sensed products using various software platforms;
