Imagery Analyst — Drone & Maritime

Role Title: Imagery Analyst — Drone & Maritime

Role Type: Contractor — part-time or full-time

Location: Remote, U.S.-based

Opportunity Snapshot

Pay: $30— $60

Volume: Steady throughput expected; you set your own pace

Commitment: Part-time or full-time, your schedule

Location: Remote — U.S. citizens only

You’ll need: U.S. citizenship and an active DoD Common Access Card (CAC)

Your tasks: Review and correct object labels on drone and maritime imagery

micro1 is engaging imagery annotators for a Navy project working with drone and maritime sensor imagery. This role requires an active DoD Common Access Card — if you don’t have one, this project isn’t a fit, but we run other annotation projects without that requirement.

The work is precise and repetitive: you review object labels that a machine generated, fix the ones that are wrong, and add the ones it missed. No AI experience required. What matters is a careful eye and the discipline to stay accurate across long sessions.

What you’ll do

• Review machine-generated bounding boxes on still imagery and correct the ones that are off.
• Find and label objects the model missed.
• Apply the labeling guidelines consistently across every image.
• Work within a secure Navy environment using the provided tools.
• Maintain steady throughput — you’re paid per submitted image.
• Flag ambiguous cases to the team instead of guessing.
• Move into video frame annotation as the project expands.

What we’re looking for

• U.S. citizenship and an active DoD Common Access Card (CAC).
• Strong attention to detail and the patience for repetitive, accuracy-critical work.
• Experience with data labeling or bounding box annotation is a plus, but not required.
• Familiarity with aerial, maritime, satellite, or thermal imagery is a plus.
• Comfortable learning new labeling software.
• Clear written and verbal communication.
