Description:
Photogrammetric Imagery Scientists extract monoscopic, stereoscopic, and multiscopic mensuration of objects and geographic features utilizing all imaging systems (i.e., satellite, airborne, ground). They create mensuration reports and mensuration-derived computer-aided design products. They collaborate with analysts to understand intelligence issues and provide scientific results to conduct intell
