Sr. GIS Analyst/Instructor

Provide support of military operations to develop, engineer, maintain, and train GIS and Remote Sensing for Army space forces deployed worldwide in support of joint military operations. Evaluate emerging space and missile defense hardware and software technologies and make recommendations on the suitability of new technologies to meet mission requirements, increase performance and solve existing problems provide technical analysis to government customer and analytical support to the war fighter community. Develop and revise Geographic Information Systems and Remote Sensing courses and training materials aimed at situational awareness, geospatial analysis, geo-intelligence, global environmental problems, natural disaster analysis and national and commercial imagery retrieval tools. Instruct war fighters in elementary thru advanced GIS and remote sensing, enabling them to provide commanders and tactical units with timely targeting, battle planning, and battle damage assessment information, and with an accurate and current picture of the enemy and terrain during planning and execution and to provide soldiers the theory and applications of image-processing techniques specifically aimed at environmental and/or natural disasters. Assume position as the subject matter expert in all aspects of the remote sensing process, to include knowledge of: spectral and radar data sources, the tasking process, exploitation and analysis, and dissemination capabilities. Provide training and analysis to the US Army Space and Missile Defense Command, Army Forces Strategic Command, Army Space Support Teams ARSST , the Space and Missile Defense Battle Lab SMDBL and Space Support Elements SSE in GIS and Remote Sensing. This included on-site digital image/spectral processing and advanced geospatial analysis for the creation of finely tailored tactical imagery/GIS fusion products, spectral analysis such as change detection, land cover classification, edge detection, and image mosaic such products are used in conjunction with advanced geospatial analysis using a Geographic Information System GIS to generate 2nd and 3rd generation products, e.g., line-of-sight analysis, lines of communication identification, slope analysis, proximity analysis, predictive modeling, and spatial and temporal modeling
