Driver / Data Collector in Magdeburg, Germany

Company Description

Terry Soot Management Group (TSMG) is a field data collection company founded in 2017 in Europe. We collect data where automation is not possible, counting features, taking pictures, making videos, recording speech, and scanning areas for every detail needed for informed decisions. Our field data collection teams are spread across Europe and North America, ready to accept new challenges.

Project Overview

This project aims to collect high‑quality visuals of streets, key points of interest, and public spaces across EU countries. Using vehicles equipped with removable 360° cameras and lidars, drivers will capture comprehensive images of the surroundings. The captured data will be stored on onboard SSD drives and later used to enhance one of the world’s leading online mapping platforms.

Data collectors will follow pre‑assigned routes, focusing on public streets, commercial areas, and points of interest. To ensure the highest image quality, certain areas may need to be revisited during favorable weather conditions. The duration of the project varies by scope of work, with assignments involving 3 to 6 months of active work.
