The Institute of Geomatics invites applications for a
Research Assistant
for the
Active Remote Sensing Unit
(Reference TA-2010-07-26-RA)

1. Description of position

Function: Research assistant for the research "Active Remote Sensing" Unit
Salary range: According to the selected candidate's experience and capacities
Reporting: To the Head of the Unit

2. Functions and activities:
• Processing and analysis of data coming from different satellite-based and terrestrial sensors.
• Tasks of research and development.
• Participation in measurement experimental campaigns.
• Involvement on the research projects of the Unit.
3. The Institute of Geomatics

The Institute of Geomatics is a non-profit public consortium of the autonomous Government of Catalonia (GC) and the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC). It was created by law of the GC in 1997 and its mission is to promote and develop geomatics, through applied research and education, for the general benefit of society.

The Institute of Geomatics is organized along modern academic management principles. It integrates a friendly and motivating research atmosphere together with scientific, technical and administrative rigor. We practice the knowledge triangle of research, innovation and education. We measure our performance. We trust and respect people.

4. The Active Remote Sensing Unit (TA)

The Active Remote Sensing unit has the objective to carry out research related to the generation and analysis of spaceborne, airborne and ground-based data and to develop thereof scientific and technical applications. As its name indicates, the activities of the TA unit are related to active sensor types, as for example Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Laser Scanners. Nevertheless, TA has experience with passive sensors that produce for instance optical images.

From the applications point of view TA is highly specialized in the measurement and monitoring of deformations. In addition the unit's curriculum includes works in other applications like Digital Terrain Model generation among others. These are the fundamental research areas of the TA unit:
• Algorithms and analysis methods: interferometric SAR (InSAR), differential interferometric SAR (DInSAR) and terrestrial SAR,
• Measurement of deformations with DInSAR, with emphasis on topics related to the evaluation of the quality of measurements and the validation of DInSAR techniques,
• Terrestrial active remote sensing techniques: laser scanner and terrestrial SAR.
• Analysis of Airborne laser scanner (LiDAR) data.
5. Candidate profile
• Degree in Engineering, Mathematics, Physics or any other equivalent background or professional experience that qualifies the candidate for the specific functions and activities described above.

• Fluent communication in English.
• High level of proactive, initiative working, responsibility, teamwork.
• Previous academic or work experience in geomatics, a general solid background in technology and/or research, contacts to key actors in the geomatics R+D environment like ESA, European Commission, companies and other organizations of the sector are an asset.
• Very good knowledge in C or C++ programming languages (IDL would be an asset).
• Driving license B1.
