What is the difference between Internship Aerial Mapping Pilot vs Drone Operator?
| Aspect | Internship Aerial Mapping Pilot | Drone Operator |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | Basic drone pilot certification, relevant coursework | Drone pilot license, FAA Part 107 |
| Work Environment | Fieldwork, outdoor locations, mapping projects | Indoor/outdoor, various industries including photography and surveying |
| Industry Usage | Mapping, surveying, GIS data collection | Photography, videography, inspection |
Internship Aerial Mapping Pilots focus on collecting geospatial data for mapping and surveying, often as part of an internship program. Drone Operators have similar certifications but may work across diverse industries like media or inspection. While both roles require drone certification, Internship Aerial Mapping Pilots typically engage in more specialized data collection for mapping projects, often in outdoor environments, whereas Drone Operators may have broader applications.

Job description
Jr. Drone Pilot
Arch Aerial LLC is seeking a highly motivated candidate interested in a Jr. Drone Pilot (Jr. Unmanned Aerial Systems Pilot) role to assist and execute drone-based data collection missions focused on aerial mapping data, leak detection data, and other hyper-spectral payload data, primarily on Arch Aerial's customers' energy assets in West Texas and New Mexico. Travel will be required from time to time.
The candidate should expect a majority of in-field work operating unmanned aerial systems. In-field work will be in industrial applications with West Texas (hot) conditions in the summer, and West Texas (cold) conditions in the winter, which are physically demanding.
This is an entry level position with immediate opportunities for training, however previous experience with the DJI M300/M350 specifically, and DJI aircraft in general, are a huge advantage to a candidate. Those with previous experience using leak detection equipment for methane scouting are also highly encouraged to apply.
Students, recent graduates, or those looking to enter the unmanned aerial systems field are appropriate candidates, however skills and requirements are listed further below, and preference will be given to those with the skills listed as primary and secondary traits. Integrity and organizational skills are highly valued (more so than a specific educational degree). This is a full-time position.
Functions and ResponsibilitiesThe Drone Pilot (UAS Pilot) will be responsible for:
Primary Duties
- Assisting (the Operations Manager, Western Region) with the daily collection of drone-based aerial mapping (visible spectrum), drone-based aerial leak detection (methane laser), and drone-based aerial hyper-spectral data (OGI and other payloads).
- Conducting UAS (drone) operations at construction sites, pipeline right of ways, pump stations, refineries, well pads, and other facilities.
- Daily and monthly maintenance of drone and ground based equipment, and vehicles.
- Assisting with daily compiling of inspection reports.
- Assisting Jr. Data Technicians or Jr. UAS Pilots in the same region. These Jr. Data Technicians and Jr. UAS Pilots will assist both the West Texas region, but also overflow for data from other regions in times of high demand.
- Assisting with creation, measurement, and delivery any additional reporting.
- The Drone Pilot (UAS Pilot) applying for this position will also be required from time to time, to assist with daily data delivery for overflow data collected at other regions of the company's operational footprint.
- Driving to and on Arch Aerial's customers' assets on relevant projects.
- Assist with Arch Aerial LLC data management initiatives for current work and archival strategies.
- Being a constant ambassador and sales-minded representative of the company when interacting with peers, other operators, or other service companies in the field.
- Being a safety-minded operator that protects their own individual safety and the integrity of the equipment they are operating.
