The Senior Scientist will work on a program demonstrating both the quick-and-dirty and operations-grad pilots on operationally relevant data that show the utility of R&D concepts when applied to beneficial impact on the current state of practice in Customer operations such as Analysis and Source mission-related activities. Team member will assist in conceptualizing and realizing these demonstrations, to include their research, development, implementation and the establishment of their tangible cost and benefit to Analysis, Source and other customers.
Duties Include:
- Scientific validation and exploration of geophysical and photogrammetric near-real time modeling to support the development of a global, collaborative, 4D geoscience system and predictive modeling capability which enables the creation of actionable intelligence from complex scientific content to support DoD and Customer requirements
- Document statistical protocols used to determine earth science parameters most significant for geoscientific modeling
- Identify critical attribution for vegetation/land cover and soil moisture/material characteristics
- Collect supportive metrics from quantitative analysis for metric data to enable automation of “massive” geophysical modeling – to include World Magnetic Model and gravity model data
- Reporting and dissemination and other post-processing for the customer user interface and user experience in existing and concept end-to-end workflows
