Provide 3D Building Information Modeling (BIM), 3D imagery (photogrammetry and Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) scans), and aerial high-resolution Ortho mosaic imagery using Autodesk Revit for all customer sites, towers, structures, and equipment. All models must be georeferenced, compatible with Esri ArcGIS environments, and all technology used must meet U.S. government security requirements under Section 889 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).

Work Model: Onsite

• Capture 3D models of internal and external sites, towers, structures, and equipment using photogrammetry and LiDAR technology.
• Capture high-resolution two-dimensional (2D) ortho mosaic aerial imagery using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or similar equipment, ensuring a Ground Sample Distance (GSD) of 2-5 cm per pixel to meet high spatial accuracy and inspection-level detail.
• Ensure models are georeferenced to meet integration standards for ArcGIS. Accuracy for 3D imagery must achieve the same GSD of 2-5 cm per pixel for photogrammetry and LiDAR, ensuring fine-detail resolution.
• Provide BIM models that adhere to level of development (LOD) 300 for electronic systems and LOD 200 for infrastructure, ensuring accuracy in both.
• Capture Networks and Power Distribution: Model both local and external network connections, showing system interconnections and accurately mapping power distribution.
• Develop Interactive Mapping: Provide system-level mapping of power, network paths, and communication links, enabling isolation and highlighting of individual components.
• Maintain Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) Standards: All BIM models must comply with IFC standards to ensure consistent spatial accuracy and asset representation.
• Collect Basic System Identification: Capture visual representations of equipment as interactive 3D objects with metadata (e.g., make, model, serial number, etc.).
• Provide 360-Degree Panoramic and Still Photography: Include strategically captured 360-degree panoramic photos and still images of key equipment, integrated with the 3D imagery to enhance spatial context.
• Collect warranty information, maintenance history, installation dates, software/firmware versions, and next service dates. Ensure metadata fields are properly formatted with placeholders for government updates.
• Collect and deliver metadata aligned with both IFC and Construction Operations Building Information Exchange (COBie) standards. The metadata structure, including families, elements, parameters, and Unique Identifiers (UIDs), must be agreed upon by the government at the project's outset.
• Provide 3D BIM Models: Comprehensive Autodesk Revit models incorporating all electronic systems and infrastructure, meeting LOD 300 for electronic systems and LOD 200 for infrastructure.
• Collect 3D Imagery Data: Processed LiDAR and photogrammetry datasets, ready for integration into BIM models and ArcGIS.
• Produce Fused 3D Models: High-resolution 3D models combining LiDAR and photogrammetry data, with fusion documentation. Panoramic and still photos of key equipment, including nameplates and technical labels, integrated into the 3D models.
• Gather Aerial Ortho mosaic Imagery: High-resolution, georeferenced 2D imagery for detailed mapping and ArcGIS integration.
• Provide Metadata Report: A comprehensive metadata report in IFC and COBie formats, including UID requirements for all equipment, as well as compliance data (e.g., FIPS, spectrum approval).

Accountable For:

• Excellent oral and written communication skills.
• Ability to ensure metadata fields are properly formatted with placeholders for government updates.

• Autodesk Revit Certification: Required for those handling BIM models to ensure proper development and integration.
• 3D Photogrammetry and LiDAR Scanning Expertise: Certification or significant experience in these technologies is required, with preferred 5 years of experience.
• GIS Integration Experience: Familiar with integrating 3D models into ArcGIS.
• BIM Expertise: Demonstrated experience in creating and refining BIM models and generating metadata, with preferred 5 years of experience.
• Experience with GIS Integration: Developing and refining 3D BIM models and ensure integration into ArcGIS environment.
• Metadata Management Experience: Expertise in managing and updating metadata for BIM and 3D imagery models. Proficient in both COBie and IFC meta data standards and developing metadata hierarchy structures.
• Valid driver's license.
• Ability to pass and maintain background clearance.
• Must be able to successfully pass a pre-employment background check and pre-hire drug test.

Working Conditions:

• Must be able to work outdoors.
• Ability to work in low lit areas for long periods of time
• Occasional travel may be necessary.

Physical Requirements:

• Must be able lift 50 lbs.
• Must be able to tolerate heat/cold conditions.
