What is the difference between Professional Spatial Statistics vs Geospatial Analyst?

AspectProfessional Spatial StatisticsGeospatial Analyst
Required CredentialsMaster's or PhD in Statistics, Geography, or related field; GIS certificationsBachelor's or Master's in Geography, GIS, or related field; GIS certifications
Work EnvironmentResearch-focused, data analysis, modeling, and statistical interpretationMapping, data collection, GIS software application, and spatial data management
Employer & Industry UsageAcademic, research institutions, government agencies, environmental organizationsUrban planning, environmental consulting, government agencies, private GIS firms

Professional Spatial Statistics primarily involves advanced statistical analysis and modeling of spatial data, often requiring higher-level degrees and a focus on data interpretation. Geospatial Analysts focus on mapping, GIS data management, and spatial data visualization. While both roles work with spatial data, their core responsibilities and skill sets differ, making them distinct but related careers in the geospatial industry.

What Impact You'll Have
GRVTY is seeking a motivated and experienced Geospatial Analyst to provide geospatial and imagery expertise and quantitative analysis to make recommendations that improve data curation and development in support of Machine Learning algorithm training and evaluation. The ideal candidate brings strong multi-INT analytical skills and a passion for applying advanced geospatial tradecraft and data science principles to solve complex military and intelligence challenges. This role will drive solutions that improve the quality, diversity, and representativeness of datasets powering ML model development pipelines.
What You'll be Owning
  • Leverage multi-INT data to curate imagery from emerging capabilities, with curated imagery prioritized for:
    • Creation of labeled data to support the model development pipeline
    • Meeting set criteria and characteristics (e.g., geographic coverage, scene attributes) per customer prioritization
  • Based on the characteristics and limitations of new data, recommend curation strategies and identify data gaps to develop a diverse, representative dataset for Machine Learning model development
  • Identify techniques and methods to conduct data mining and retrieval, applying statistical and mathematical analyses to:
    • Identify trends and solve problems
    • Optimize performance
  • Develop and apply methods by collecting, processing, and analyzing large volumes of data to build and enhance products, processes, and systems
  • Visualize information using a range of tools, scripts, and algorithms to:
    • Create explanatory and predictive models
    • Conduct comparative and alternative analysis to address complex military and intelligence challenges
  • Conduct spatial and spatial-temporal analysis and statistics of data holdings to support imagery curation, utilizing knowledge of:
    • Elevation and terrain datasets
    • Customer-directed prioritization criteria including geographic coverage and scene attributes
  • Exploit imagery and analyze geospatial data utilizing GEOINT tradecraft, critical thinking skills, and data science principles, including tools such as:
    • RemoteView
    • Cedalion
    • ArcGIS Pro
    • Jupyter Notebook
  • Utilize programming, statistics, and visualization methods to glean insights from large and disparate data sources
  • Select methods and practices to conduct multi-INT research, descriptive analyses, and exploitation of intelligence databases and sources
  • Implement technical knowledge of GA tradecraft including GIS analyses such as:
    • Viewshed / Line of Sight (LOS)
    • Mobility and Order of Battle
    • Geospatial Synthesis and Modeling
    • Simulation and Terrain Analysis
    • Spatial Statistics

What You Must Have
  • Active TS/SCI Clearance with the ability to obtain a CI/Poly
  • Experience with imagery analytical products and conducting multi-INT analysis
  • Ability to utilize structured, unstructured, and semi-structured data and visualization tools to exploit data through programming and scripting, including:
    • Advanced geospatial skills
    • Strong understanding of how to apply evolving technology and methodologies to related issues

What Would be Nice to Have
  • Experience working with or developing Machine Learning algorithms for exploiting overhead imagery and/or motion imagery products
