Tasks for “Photogrammetry Flight Operations Director”
- Verify the accuracy of survey data, including measurements and calculations conducted at survey sites.
- Compute geodetic measurements and interpret survey data to determine positions, shapes, and elevations of geomorphic and topographic features.
- Locate and mark sites selected for geophysical prospecting activities such as efforts to locate petroleum or other mineral products.
- Determine specifications for photographic equipment to be used for aerial photography, as well as altitudes from which to photograph terrain.
- Develop criteria for survey methods and procedures.
- Direct aerial surveys of specified geographical areas.
- Prepare or supervise preparation of all data, charts, plots, maps, records, and documents related to surveys.
- Plan and conduct ground surveys designed to establish baselines, elevations, and other geodetic measurements.
- Conduct research in surveying and mapping methods using knowledge of techniques of photogrammetric map compilation and electronic data processing.
- Train assistants and helpers, and direct their work in such activities as performing surveys or drafting maps.
- Determine longitudes and latitudes of important features and boundaries in survey areas, using theodolites, transits, levels, and satellite-based global positioning systems (GPS).
- Direct or conduct surveys to establish legal boundaries for properties, based on legal deeds and titles.
