Each surveyor in a survey team is scored on the Drone, LiDAR & Remote Sensing Survey skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank surveyors, compare two side by side, or compare your survey teams against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Drone, LiDAR & Remote Sensing Survey skills need attention. Reports also follow each party chief's survey team.

What skills does the Drone, LiDAR & Remote Sensing Survey scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Drone, LiDAR & Remote Sensing Survey scorecard covers 10 skills: Flight Planning and Risk Assessment, Regulatory Compliance and Airspace Awareness, Aerial Capture Technique, Ground Control and Accuracy Checks, Photogrammetry and Point Cloud Processing, LiDAR and Sensor Knowledge, Deliverable Quality and Client Reporting, Equipment Care, Batteries and Pre-Flight Checks, Emergency Procedures and Incident Reporting and Site Communication and Safety Briefings. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are surveyors scored in Drone, LiDAR & Remote Sensing Survey?
Every surveyor is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one survey team and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Drone, LiDAR & Remote Sensing Survey?
Drone, LiDAR & Remote Sensing Survey starts with these levels (called “Seniority Level” in the app): Trainee Pilot, Remote Pilot, Senior Pilot, Data Processing Lead and Manager. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Drone, LiDAR & Remote Sensing Survey skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In surveying & geospatial the app talks about surveyors, survey teams and party chiefs, and you can change any of those words too.
