• Conducts target coordinate mensuration production using direct, registration, multiple image geo-positioning and resection techniques on a variety of target types using National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA)-validated mensuration tools to support employment of kinetic weapons.
• Conducts analytic production of collateral damage estimates (CDE) and produces required graphics using Digital Point Position Strike Suite Collateral Damage Estimation (DCiDE)/ Digital Imagery Exploitation Engine (DIEE).
• Conducts imagery research, analysis and exploitation and produces imagery based target materials and other products to support targeting.
• Assists weaponeering using approved tools and / or guides to achieve desired damage criteria.
• Assists with no-strike identifications and nominations. Performs quality control, database nominations, creates and updates database records, and uploads TM products to databases.
• Submits collection requests as required to meet target material requirements to support current operations.
• Conducts Precise Point Mensuration (PPM) production conducting target coordinate mensuration using direct, registration (controlled tie), resection (uncontrolled tie), and multiple image geo-positioning techniques on a variety of target types using NGA validated mensuration tools to support employment of Global Positioning System (GPS) guided munitions.
• Perform Quality Control of target material products produced by other personnel. Conduct weaponeering to achieve desired damage criteria utilizing Joint Munitions Effectiveness Manuel Weaponeering System or other approved tools.
• Experience (All Levels): Demonstrates experience with Target Coordinate Mensuration (TCM), Modernized Integrated Database (MIDB), and GoogleEarth.
• Proficient with Socket Community Gold Standard (CGS), Joint Weaponeering System (JWS), DCiDE / DIEE, and Joint Targeting Toolbox. Basic Requirements:
• NGA, CCMD, or Service Target Materials Production(TMP) certification.
• Must be certified in Basic CDE Methodology or certified in PPM by NGA or an NGA- accredited Service Component.
