What is aerial photogrammetry?

An Aerial Photogrammetry job involves capturing and analyzing aerial images to create maps, 3D models, and measurements of terrain, structures, or landscapes. Professionals in this field use drones, aircraft, or satellites equipped with cameras and sensors to gather geospatial data. They process and interpret the imagery using specialized software to support industries like surveying, construction, agriculture, and urban planning. The role requires expertise in remote sensing, GIS applications, and data analysis to ensure accurate and useful results.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed for aerial photogrammetry?

To thrive in Aerial Photogrammetry, you need strong skills in geospatial analysis, image interpretation, and a solid background in geography, surveying, or a related field. Familiarity with specialized software such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems), photogrammetric processing tools (e.g., Pix4D, Agisoft Metashape), and drone operation certifications are typically required. Excellent attention to detail, problem-solving abilities, and strong teamwork and communication skills help professionals excel in collaborative project environments. These competencies are crucial to ensure the accurate collection, processing, and interpretation of aerial data for mapping, surveying, and analysis projects.

What are some common challenges faced in aerial photogrammetry?

In aerial photogrammetry roles, professionals often encounter challenges related to variable weather conditions, site accessibility, and ensuring high data accuracy during image capture and processing. Handling and calibrating drones or other aerial equipment safely and efficiently is also a key concern, as is managing large datasets and troubleshooting software issues. Collaboration with surveyors, GIS specialists, and project managers is essential for integrating aerial data into broader mapping or engineering projects. Overcoming these challenges requires a combination of technical expertise, attention to detail, and effective communication with the team.

This role involves fieldwork and project support on ALTA, Topographic, Construction Staking, Boundary, and aerial mapping projects.

Requirements

  • Active Arizona Registered Land Surveyor (RLS) license preferred (or ability to obtain Arizona reciprocity)
  • FAA Part 107 Drone License required
  • 5+ years of land surveying field experience
  • 3+ years flying Drones for survey work
  • Experience with drone/UAS data collection and mission planning
  • Ability to communicate clearly with superintendents, contractors, clients, and project teams
  • Working knowledge of AutoCAD Civil 3D (required)
  • Trimble Business Center experience is a plus
  • Strong understanding of land surveying techniques, principles, boundary law, and survey standards
  • Experience operating GPS, robotic total stations, and related survey equipment
  • Proven work history, strong work ethic, and team-first mindset
  • Organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage your own work
  • Having your own equipment is a plus (if compatible with our resources)

Equipment & Training
