   personal_statement: As a geographer and FAA Part 107 and DOI A450 certified remote
     pilot with the Aerial Imaging and Mapping Group (AIMG), I specialize in the
     planning and execution of uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) surveys and the processing
     and publication of aerial imagery and map products to support the science data
     needs of researchers at the Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center (WHCMSC)
     and other local and federal partners.I am responsible for the logistics of UAS
     mission planning and imagery collection, with emphasis on best practices for
     improving spatial and spectral accuracy as well as safe operation of the UAS
     aircraft. I am also responsible for the processing of the UAS imagery from the
     moment it comes off the camera to the generation of digital surface models (DSM)
     and reflectance orthomosaics. With a background in geology, hydrology, and remote
     sensing, I also participate in the analysis of the imagery products I produce
     and am familiar with techniques and concepts for classification and change detection.I
     also have been helping take the lead at our center on transitioning to the metadata
     standards for geographic data put forth by the International Organization for
     Standardization (ISO) and work with the Content Specification Development Team
     at the USGS on development of ISO tools and resources.
