Key Responsibilities

Geospatial Data Layer Development

Create and integrate three primary geospatial layers:

Land P arcels: Property boundaries and fi eld divisions

Vegetation Status: Real-time crop health and vigor mapping

Soil Types: Soil classifi cation and characteristics mapping

Ensure all layers are clean, well-structured, and ready for production use

GIS Software Implementation

Work with QGIS and/or ArcGIS for desktop geospatial processing

Export data in formats compatible with web mapping frameworks (Leaflet, Mapbox, or similar)

Ensure seamless integration between desktop GIS and web mapping stacks

Map Design & User Experience

Design intuitive symbology and styling that clearly differentiates:

Vegetation vigor levels (healthy vs. stressed crops)

Soil classifi cation types

Land parcel boundaries

Balance visual clarity with information density

Enable smooth zoom functionality from farm-level overview to individual field detail

Data Architecture & Integration

Structure attribute tables to support future integration with:

IoT sensors (soil moisture, weather stations)

Farm machinery telemetry

Crop health monitoring systems

Prepare data schemas for dashboard widgets monitoring:

Crop health metrics

Water usage tracking

Input (fertilizer/pesticide) application tracking

Whole-farm operational overview

Knowledge Transfer

Conduct brief hand-off session (screen share or in-person)





Document project organization and layer structure

Train internal team on updating and maintaining layers independently

Provide transparent guidelines for adding new data sources

Knowledge of data visualization and cartographic design principles

Experience with geoprocessing and spatial analysis

Domain Experience

Must Have: Previous work on agricultural, forestry, or environmental monitoring dashboards

Experience integrating remote sensing data (satellite imagery, drone data)

Understanding of vegetation indices (NDVI, EVI) and soil mapping

Familiarity with precision agriculture concepts

Soft Skills

Strong problem-solving and spatial reasoning

Excellent attention to detail and data accuracy

Ability to communicate complex geospatial concepts to non-technical stakeholders

Self-motivated with ability to work independently

Preferred Qualifications

Bachelors/Masters degree in GIS, Remote Sensing, Geospatial Science, Geography, or related field

Experience with Python scripting for GIS automation (ArcPy, PyQGIS, GDAL)

Knowledge of GPS/GNSS fi eld data collection

Familiarity with IoT sensor data integration

Experience with agricultural data sources (satellite imagery, soil surveys, crop yield data)

Portfolio demonstrating farm management or environmental monitoring projects
