Services
ALTA/ACSM Surveys
We conduct ALTA/ACSM surveys to meet national standards for property boundary determination. These detailed assessments identify easements, encroachments, and improvements, providing critical data for real estate transactions and development projects. Our surveys comply with insurance requirements and municipal regulations.
Geodetic Positioning Surveys
Our geodetic positioning services use advanced GPS technology to establish precise coordinates for infrastructure projects. This work supports FAA facilities, transportation corridors, and flood control systems by creating accurate spatial reference frameworks for engineering designs and construction.
Topographic/Design Surveys
We create detailed topographic maps showing natural and man-made features for engineering designs. These surveys guide roadway alignments, drainage studies, and site development plans by documenting elevation changes and existing conditions for construction projects.
Right-of-Way Alignment Mapping
Our right-of-way mapping services define legal boundaries for transportation and utility projects. We produce acquisition exhibits and parcel maps that facilitate infrastructure development while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements for public works projects.
FEMA Elevation Certificates
We provide FEMA elevation certificates to determine flood risk for properties in regulated areas. These documents support flood insurance requirements and mitigation efforts by certifying building elevations relative to floodplain management standards.
