GIS Mapping

Water & Environmental Technologies (WET) offers a wide varity of mapping services:

• Environmental Data Mapping
• Stormwater
• City and County GIS Database Development
• Transportation Modeling
• Watershed Analysis
• Data Conversion/Analysis

GPS Mapping

Water & Environmental Technologies (WET) offers GPS (Global Positioning System) mapping services to provide better accuracy in locating site features. This mapping can be used to locate streams, wetlands, bore holes, monitoring wells, weeds and other important features identified on a site.

Equipment

Our Trimble GeoXH mapping units use H-Star Technology to provide sub-foot corrected mapping accuracy. Mapping accuracy of the GeoXH is more variable and is dependent on canopy cover, but can provide sub-foot accuracy.

Saves Time

Water & Environmental Technologies (WET) typically uses its GPS equipment to provide timely and accurate mapping of environmental features. This mapping typically saves time and money over conventional survey methods. We can normally provide a map of our findings within 1-2 days following completion of the field work, versus 2 weeks or more for a typical survey crew. The field data is downloaded, exported to GIS, and then over-laid onto a base map. As with any GPS system, there are some limitations. The GPS is a mapping quality system and does not replace conventional surveying when survey quality accuracy is required.

 

Survey Services - GNSS Surveying

Water and Environmental Technologies offers survey-grade mapping services when projects call for more precision than our Trimble GeoHX mapping units can provide. Our GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) survey equipment allows us to gather accurate topographic surveys and pin-point locations on the Earth’s surface within 1/10th of an inch. The system is especially effective for determining well locations and elevations, topographic surveys, and construction staking.

The GNSS system allows our engineers to quickly and effectively gather the information they need for projects requiring civil engineering design, cutting project completion time down substantially. The system streamlines our ability to design and prepare for a variety of construction projects: storm water structures, utility work (water and sewer lines), and roads. WET’s system also provides the capability to determine cut and fill volumes for excavation projects.
