for the right-of-way and property lines. These preliminary base maps will be suitable for the first contact with utility companies and preliminary estimates of the design needs. During the preliminary design process, our surveyors will ground truth the roadways to locate existing features within the project limits – existing walls, pavement edges, drainage structures, manholes, landscaped features and above-ground utilities. We will also work with a subsurface utility locator who will coordinate with the utility companies and will mark the location of underground pipes. The survey will identify the horizontal location of underground utilities as marked. The depth to the flowline of accessible sanitary sewer and stormwater structures within the project limits will be surveyed. The project team will verify right-of-way and property ownership within the project limits through research of GIS information initially, then through recorded documents such as deeds and the plat as the design effort progresses. Finally, the title work will be performed by the legal team as easement documents are prepared. The survey will be utilized to refine the base map of the project limits for final engineering design and construction plans. Erdman Anthony’s surveying team specializes in route surveys, having worked for DOTs in Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, and Maine. Our crews use the latest equipment and tools, including laser scanners, mobile scanners, drones and Imaging Rovers, which allow them to work in one- and two-person crews. By using these advanced survey techniques, we are able to work quickly and efficiently. These techniques are also very nonintrusive. Therefore, this type of work can be performed during the winter season without disturbing the residents. The Power of our Survey Approach is in the Pictures Erdman Anthony proposes to use Imaging Rover technology to obtain the survey ground data. This technology uses an integrated camera system that precisely captures 360-degree digital panoramic images for efficient visual documentation and measurement of the surrounding environment. This is combined with a GPS positioning sensor to accurately provide real-time, survey grade coordinates to each image. This provides the means to quickly capture rich data and create comprehensive survey mapping deliverables. The system captures a 60-megapixel panorama image using 12 calibrated cameras to provide complete site documentation that is used to make photogrammetric measurements. This imaging functionality is ideal to perform work where there are many features to collect, or where features are collect or difficult to capture or where further data collection is needed at a later date. Capture Now, Measure Later We can communicate site conditions, minimize site visits and benefit from increased quality control by visually observing the site in the field and measuring in the office later. The images collected also help communicate site conditions to individuals who are not on site. Back in the office, we use the enhanced
