Job description
Key details
- Lead and manage all GIS technical deliverables across multiple projects, ensuring timely, high-quality outputs aligned with client requirements and company standards
- Oversee the full GIS workflow, from data acquisition and processing to final integration into immersive environments
- Maintain strict adherence to standardised data structures, schemas, naming conventions, and metadata protocols for all geospatial datasets
- Develop, implement, and enforce best-practice GIS data management policies to ensure consistency, accuracy, and scalability
- Perform advanced geospatial data processing, cleaning, transformation, and quality assurance using ArcGIS, QGIS, or similar platforms
- Prepare and optimise GIS datasets (vector, raster, elevation/DEM, 3D features, and attribute data) for ingestion into Unreal Engine
- Utilise Unreal Engine tools and plugins (e.g. ArcGIS Maps SDK for Unreal Engine) to import, geo-reference, and integrate GIS data into real-time 3D environments and digital twins
- Collaborate closely with Unreal Engine developers, 3D artists, and visualisation teams to troubleshoot geospatial integration issues (coordinate systems, scale, precision, performance optimisation)
- Ensure geospatial accuracy, coordinate reference system alignment, and visual fidelity when translating GIS data into Unreal Engine scenes
- Manage version control, backups, and archiving of GIS datasets to support project iteration and long-term asset reuse
- Document GIS processes, data pipelines, and Unreal Engine ingestion workflows to facilitate team knowledge sharing and onboarding
- Identify and implement opportunities to automate GIS-to-Unreal data pipelines for increased efficiency on large-scale projects
- Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior GIS team members on data standards, Unreal integration techniques, and project-specific requirements
- Research and source GIS datasets to support world-building teams
- Stay current with advancements in GIS technologies, game-engine geospatial tools, and emerging best practices for immersive digital twin development
