GPS/GIS Services

SER routinely provides GPS and GIS services for our clients. Our state-of-the-art equipment will ensure that you get the most accurate results possible for using in the preparation of as-built plans.

Precise locations of areas such as delineated or recently constructed wetland boundaries will be located using our Trimble Ag 132 GPS equipped with a Juniper Systems field data collector. Positions will be differentially corrected in real-time using signals transmitted by the Coast Guard station in Alma, Wisconsin, or by using a satellite-transmitted differential correction signal. This system is capable of sub-meter accuracy when using real-time differential correction in the field.

After field visitation, GPS data points can be downloaded and exported into two file types commonly used by professional surveyors: ArcView and AutoCAD. This will allow for easy integration of as-built mitigation area boundaries into site plans, as well as for rapid and accurate calculation of mitigation area acreage. We can also print out copies of your data points overlayed onto an aerial photograph (i.e., a digital ortho-quad or DOQ) for you.

Please see our sister site, GPS Innovations, for more detail about our GPS capabilities.

A couple of examples of projects SER has been involved in where we have used our GPS and GIS capabilities to help our clients include the PolyMet: NorthMet Mine Species Inventory and the Blanding's Turtle Habitat Evaluation, respectively.
