o Work with internal IT, software vendors, and cloud providers to optimize system

performance and storage strategies.

o Develop and maintain documented workflows for data processing, asset

extraction, classification, and delivery.

o Implement and manage API-based integrations and data exchanges between

internal systems and client systems where required.

o Support user training and troubleshooting for internal staff working within

geospatial platforms.

Technical Leadership and Mentoring:

o Provide technical leadership to Field Survey Data Processing Analysts and other

staff involved in geospatial work.

o Develop training materials and conduct sessions to upskill team members on

LiDAR processing, GIS tools, and data QA processes.

o Serve as a technical point of escalation for complex data or workflow issues.

methodologies align with downstream data requirements.

o Provide guidance to field teams on data capture standards, naming conventions,

and metadata collection.

o Maintain a base-level understanding of field operations, equipment, and safety

considerations to provide limited operational support when needed (e.g.,

advising on data collection parameters, reviewing field routes for data

sufficiency).

o Share insights from geospatial analysis that can improve field planning, safety,

and operational efficiency.

Administrative and Strategic Support:

o Assist the Superintendent of Field Services with strategic planning related to

technology adoption, staffing needs, and service expansion.

o Support documentation efforts, including SOPs, best practices, and technical

standards for geospatial work.

o Contribute to budget planning and tracking for software licenses, cloud

utilization, and geospatial R&amp;D initiatives.

o Perform other tasks related to the geospatial and survey department as directed

by the Superintendent
