Lead the development, evaluation, and application of hyperspectral image analysis methodologies.
Perform exploitation of hyperspectral, multispectral, and related geospatial datasets to identify, classify, and characterize materials, objects, and activities of interest.
Develop, refine, and validate spectral-based algorithms for detection, unmixing, anomaly detection, change detection, target identification, and material classification.
Conduct preprocessing and calibration workflows, including radiometric correction, atmospheric correction, and geometric correction.
Build and maintain spectral libraries and support signature analysis, endmember extraction, and spectral matching.
Integrate hyperspectral analytics with other GEOINT, remote sensing, and intelligence data sources.
Prepare technical reports, briefings, white papers, and documentation for government stakeholders.
Advise leadership and mission teams on capabilities, limitations, and best practices related to hyperspectral sensing and exploitation.

Required Technical Skills

Hyperspectral and multispectral image exploitation
Spectral signature analysis and spectral library development
Material identification and classification
Sub-pixel analysis and spectral unmixing
Anomaly detection and change detection
Radiometric, atmospheric, and geometric correction
