Laser Scanning information

What is laser scanning?

A Laser Scanning job involves using specialized equipment to capture high-precision 3D data of objects, buildings, or landscapes. Professionals in this field operate laser scanners to collect spatial information, which is then processed into digital models for applications in construction, engineering, archaeology, and other industries. They may also analyze and interpret scan data to assist in project planning, inspections, or restorations. This role requires knowledge of scanning technology, software, and data processing techniques.

What does a laser scanning professional do?

In a Laser Scanning role, your daily tasks generally involve preparing, operating, and maintaining laser scanning equipment at job sites to capture accurate 3D data of structures or landscapes. You’ll also process and analyze point cloud data using specialized software, create detailed reports or 3D models, and collaborate closely with surveyors, engineers, or architects to ensure the data meets project specifications. Most roles require a mix of fieldwork and office work, so adaptability is important. Attention to safety protocols and quality assurance checks is also a regular part of the job to guarantee high-quality deliverables that support project success.

What skills and qualifications are needed for laser scanning?

To excel in Laser Scanning, you need expertise in 3D data acquisition, spatial analysis, and site documentation, often backed by experience or education in surveying, engineering, or geospatial sciences. Familiarity with laser scanning equipment (such as terrestrial LiDAR scanners), data processing software (like Autodesk ReCap or Leica Cyclone), and relevant certifications (e.g., Certified Survey Technician) is crucial. Attention to detail, problem-solving, and strong communication skills help professionals accurately interpret data and effectively work with project teams. These skills are essential to ensure precise data capture, meet project requirements, and facilitate smooth collaboration in various environments.

Job description

Geomatics Specialist

Location: Columbus, OH

Work Split: 75% Office / 25% Field

Base Salary: $75,000 – $100,000


About the Role

We're hiring a Geomatics Specialist to support machine control modeling, UAV mapping, and laser scanning operations for construction and infrastructure projects. This role blends office-based data processing with field verification work — you'll process point cloud and imagery data, build machine control models, and ensure survey-grade accuracy from capture to deliverable.


What You'll Do

  • Build and maintain machine control models for grading and earthwork operations
  • Plan, execute, and process UAV mapping missions
  • Operate laser scanning equipment and process resulting point cloud data
  • Process imagery and point cloud datasets using Topcon Capture Reality (or equivalent platforms)
  • Coordinate with field crews, project engineers, and equipment operators to translate design data into actionable machine control files
  • Conduct field verification and quality control checks (~25% of time)
  • Maintain data accuracy and version control across active projects


What We're Looking For

  • Experience with machine control modeling for construction/earthwork
  • Hands-on UAV mapping and flight planning experience
  • Proficiency with laser scanning hardware and point cloud processing
  • Working knowledge of Topcon Capture Reality or comparable software (Trimble Business Center, Autodesk, etc.)
  • Ability to translate raw geospatial data into field-ready deliverables
  • Valid driver's license (company truck provided, home-garaged)


Work Environment

This position is based in Columbus, OH, with a 75/25 office-to-field balance — most of your week will be spent processing data and building models, with regular field time for scanning, UAV flights, and site verification.
