Southland Professional Engineers has partnered with NEAL Technology to provide a unique GPS mapping system that has been successfully used in over 25,000 miles of strand mapping with sub-meter levels of accuracy. Our mapping system consists primarily of a GPS receiver, Laser Rangefinder, a Laptop field computer, AutoCAD , and proprietary software and equipment developed by NEAL Technology. We begin a typical project by obtaining a basemap (such as a Tiger basemap) to use as a reference for our mapping personnel. Since GPS basemaps are typically not available, the first thing we do is GPS collect correct highway and street locations. Though this may sound difficult and time consuming, our technology allows us to accomplish this feat simply by driving down the highway. Our maps are automatically drawn in AutoCAD.
