Geospatial Analyst Jobs

B-3 Consulting is seeking a Journeyman level Geospatial Analyst to join our team.

The Geospatial Analyst will be responsible for:

Extracting and/or acquiring geospatial information, derivative information and multi-INT data for analysis, visualization, and modeling to solve problems and enhance the GEOINT knowledge of mission-specific intelligence issues. This also includes extracting specific mission-related feature data in accordance with NGA data and product specifications and with respect to non-standard product requirements. These services include, but are not limited to:

• Provide for extracting and/or acquiring geospatial information, derivative information and multi-INT data for analysis and visualization. Includes extracting specific feature data in accordance with NGA data and product specifications and with respect to non-standard product requirements

• Include the extraction of Feature Data using NTM; Mapping, Charting & Geodesy (MC&G) Stereo Imagery; Digital Point Positioning Database (DPPDB) or Ortho-rectified Mono Equivalent [Precise Terrain and Ortho Product (PTOP); Mr. Sid Ortho-rectified Geotiffs (MSOG); Precise Ortho-rectified Image Datasets (POID); and Controlled Image Base® (CIB®)]

• Assist in developing and implementing a metadata catalog based on NGA standards

• Assist in establishing and managing geospatial analysis research and production, as well as the strategies and processes to achieve the goal of analyzing the logistics and security associated with mission-specific issues

• Create, update, and manage geospatial information system databases and products

• Assist in identifying, compiling and assessing geospatial and imagery data sets to support requirements

• Perform network and infrastructure analysis for all aspects of geographic routes to include electric power networks, transportation networks, communications networks, and security forces and perform quality control on created analytical products

• Collaborate with analysts, partners, and customers as required. Written analytical intelligence reports, graphics, and briefings are required to communicate the analysis rendered. The Contractor will be required to use a multi-INT approach towards finding, cataloging, and assessing mission-related facilities

• Utilize expertise in geospatial analysis to produce GEOINT in support of locating, compiling, characterizing, and monitoring mission-specific facilities, logistics, and route studies associated with those facilities

• Perform geospatial analysis and present results in the form of datasets, visualization, and models for inclusion in a standard and formalized NGA intelligence analysis products, such as GN’s, Cables, and NIBs that result in the authorship of 6-9 standard, coordinated NGA intelligence reports per year. The analyst should produce at least 20-25 standard, non-coordinated NGA products per year, predominantly NES remarks/baseline reports and/or ad-hoc requests for information in accordance with the NSG Directive 2-1 Exploitation and Reporting Structure (EARS-2) reporting guidance. At an intermediate-to-expert level of mastery, use a variety of geospatial analysis software suites to accomplish the mission. In general, NGA uses ESRI, ArcGIS, Socet Set, and Socet for ArcGIS software. NGA specified digital data formats will be used which may include: commercial imagery, panchromatic data, spectral data, and SAR/OPIR data. At an intermediate-to-expert level of mastery, knowledge of programming in Visual Basic and experience working with GIS and photogrammetry

• Perform Geospatial Analysis in the Integrated Analytic Environment consistent with the Structured Observation Management initiative (e.g., participation as a user on SCRUM team in AGILE sprints)
