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. We count features, take pictures, make videos, record speech, and scan areas for every detail you need to make more 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.

The captured data will be stored on onboard computers (SSD Drives)  and later utilized 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 based on the scope of work required in each targeted data collection area. On average, the assignments involve 3 to 6 months of active work.
