Senior Photogrammetric Analyst (Finance)
The County of Riverside's Flood Control and Water Conservation District has a career opportunity for a Senior Photogrammetric Analyst to join the team in Riverside. The Senior Photogrammetric Analyst will play a key role in supporting the department's mapping and geospatial projects by providing expertise in advanced photogrammetric methods and 3D environments to ensure accurate data and deliverables.
The Senior Photogrammetric Analyst will be responsible for analytical bridging, aero-triangulation, photogrammetric compilation, orthorectification, and managing mapping projects. Additional responsibilities include working in 3D stereo environments, processing drone data, editing point clouds, creating digital terrain models, editing photogrammetric mapping projects, and mapping underground utilities.
The department seeks candidates with several years of progressive photogrammetric experience, knowledge of analytical bridging procedures, and familiarity with photogrammetric software such as Cardinal Systems, ERDAS Imagine, and Summit Evolution/DAT/EM. Experience with equipment such as stereoplotters and design software, including MicroStation or AutoCAD, is also highly desirable.
Meet the Team!
The Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District provides for the control and conservation of flood and storm waters and for the protection of watercourses, watersheds, public highways, life, and property from damage within its boundaries.• Supervise and participate in orthophoto mapping projects through stereoplotting, drafting, and aerial photography, and final edit; operate double projection and optical mechanical stereoplotters.
• Use photogrammetric instruments, X-Y-Z Digitizer, and a computer to convert stereoscopic images from aerial photographs to digital terrain maps; work with engineers to extract cross section, and volumes from digital data-bases.
• Transform engineering design into digital coordinates; create three-dimensional perspective views of original ground and engineering design; maintain records as to the location of digital data-base files.
• Produce topographic maps from aerial photographs using stereoplotting equipment; conduct studies and research investigations in photogrammetry.
• Train employees in stereoplotting and related processes; order material and equipment required.Experience: Three years of experience in stereoplotting. (College level courses in Surveying, Civil Engineering, Mathematics, Optics, Photogrammetry, or related subjects may be substituted for one year of the required experience on the basis of 18 semester or 27 quarter units of education equaling one year of experience.)
Knowledge of: Basic mathematics of photogrammetry including algebra, geometry, and trigonometry; stereoscopic instruments and photogrammetric applications including photo-identification of control, field procedures for control surveys, photo-interpreting, and concepts of photogrammetric engineering; and systems and procedures for digitizing.
Ability to: Operate and instruct in the operation of photogrammetric instruments and related equipment; establish procedures for digitizing survey data and to produce maps and other engineering records from digitized data; plan and direct aerial photography for surveying purposes; operate photogrammetric instruments and related equipment to U.S. Map Accuracy Standards; plan, direct, and coordinate the work of others.This recruitment is open to all applicants.
