GNSS Data Logging Field Surveyor

The Job

As a GNSS Data Logging Field Surveyor, you are responsible for collecting high-accuracy geospatial data using advanced GNSS receivers, total stations, and data collectors. Your work provides the foundation for reliable mapping, construction, and land measurement projects. You combine strong field expertise and software proficiency (GIS/CAD) with careful data processing to ensure precision, quality, and consistency across all survey deliverables.

This role involves a combination of outdoor fieldwork at construction and land development sites and office-based data processing. It may require long working days, physical exertion, and operation in varying weather and terrain conditions, making it well suited for candidates who enjoy hands-on field operations as well as analytical data work.

Your mission

Field Data Collection: Operate GNSS receivers, total stations, and data collectors to capture accurate position and observations in accordance with project specifications.

Equipment Setup & Maintenance: Set up, calibrate, maintain, and troubleshoot surveying instruments to ensure reliable and accurate measurements in the field.

Data Processing & Quality Control: Download, process, and validate raw survey data using specialized software (e.g. GIS, CAD) to meet accuracy and quality requirements.

Survey Operations: Perform land measurements including distances, angles, and elevations; recover and document existing monuments; and set stakes or markers as required.

Documentation & Reporting: Prepare clear field notes, reports, maps, and documentation describing survey methods, results, and observations.

Collaboration: Work closely with engineers, project managers, and other stakeholders to integrate survey data into design and construction workflows.
