What We Do

Surveying

 

Boundary Surveys

GeoMetrics performs legal boundary surveys for both large and small acreage. Our staff is experienced in both Public Lands (PLSS) and Colonial (meters and bounds) resurveys. We use technology as a tool to assist in the recovery of evidence for boundary location.

Topographic/Hydrographic Surveys

GeoMetrics performs topographic surveys using both GPS and conventional terretrial total stations. All features and elevations are collected digitally in the field. The topographic maps are produced in AutoCAD DWG and Microstation DGN formats

GeoMetrics performs hydrographic surveys using GPS as a primary positioning system. The GPS is coupled with a digital fathometer to collect the depth of the water. The depth is collected each second in a regular pattern and stored with a GPS position and time tag. The depths are subtracted from the surface elevation to produce elevations on the bottom of the survey area. The elevations are then used to produce a bathymetric contour map.

Hazardous Waste/Environmental Surveys

We survey radiation, explosive ordnances, and chemical contamination. Our GPS equipment interfaces with a variety of sensory instrumentation to enable cost effective data capture. All our field personnel have completed the 40-hour Hazardous Waste Training as per OSHA 29CFR1910.120. Our experience has been gained on projects throughout the United States.

Radiation Surveys: Ratiation Gamma Walkover Surveys (GWS) are performed to measure the quantity of radionuclides present in an area of concern. All of the data is collected digitally and merged with the GPS position. The data is processed using our proprietary software and spatially analyzed in a Geographic Information System. Past projects include EPA Superfund sites and DOE/COE FUSRAP sites.

Explosive Ordnance: GeoMetrics has performed a number of surveys in support of the detection and removal of explosive ordinance. Our trained hazardous waste surveyors work closely with Explosive Ordnance Demolition (EOD) technicians. Our GPS equipment interfaces with a variety of sensors including magnetometers, ground-penetrating radar, fathometers, and side scan sonars.

Site Characterization/Location Surveys: GeoMetrics uses GPS and conventional survey technology to locate monitoring wells, soil bores, test pits and grid locations at other hazardous waste or environmentally concerned sites.

 

Route/Construction Surveys

GeoMetrics uses its expertise with GPS technology to provide real time kinematic stakeout for construction stakeout, mining and stockpile inventories and location surveys. Our dual frequency GPS equipment is capable of centimeter level accuracy in real time. The system consists of a GPS base station and a GPS rover connected via a high power radio modem. RTK stakeout is very cost effective as it is unaffected by weather and because an unlimited number of GPS rover units can operate from the same GPS base.
