Southeastern Surveying & Mapping Corp.

Subsurface Utility Designation and Location (Test Holes) by SSMC's Utility Division, employs the best electronic sensing devices as well as Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and records research to designate underground utilities, and then uses highly mobile, safe, nondestructive vacuum excavation equipment to uncover and positively identify them. The SSMC Utility Crews are additionally equipped with RTK GPS Receivers, which enable them to quickly and accurately locate the exposed utility when performing Test Holes or when performing utility designation. Since utility crews are cross-trained in field survey methods with survey crews, the three-dimensional mapping of utilities can follow the designation and location seamlessly. In every case, the close integration of utility and survey crews deliver the highest quality and precludes the need to outsource any part of the underground mapping process. Additionally, the SSMC Utility Division performs Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) Pipe Inspection Services. The system is used to perform as-built inspections, locate service connections, and find buried manholes, valves, and etcetera.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are created and maintained by SSMC's GIS Division. This division has been designing and developing digital maps and collecting data for their associated databases since 1989. The division can also supply the training and support required to help clients derive maximum returns from the integration of GIS mapping into an asset management system. Utilities and storm water management districts can derive substantial benefits from inventorying their facility’s infrastructure and managing it, to support their maintenance and operations personnel. Detailed condition assessments and inspections linked to the database provide a resource for prioritizing future improvements. GPS equipped field teams from the GIS Division are readily available to furnish the data that populates the databases. Having mapped thousands of Stormwater, Water, Wastewater and Transportation Assets, SSMC's GIS Division has developed comprehensive GIS data models which can be used to jump starts our client's GIS implementations. All database design and development, data conversion, field data collection and data delivery are managed under a common supervisory structure. Additionally, the GIS Division offers - Vehicle Based Mobile Imaging for Pavement Mapping and Condition Assessment.

SSMC's administrative infrastructure includes continually updated Quality Control, Operations, Field Procedures, and Graphic Standards Manuals created and maintained in-house. The Manuals bring discipline and standardization to the work that is easy to translate to customer standards. Schedules at Southeastern Surveying are updated daily and budgets are reviewed weekly using custom software for time input and a Daily Schedule Report that is linked to an FDOT audited accounting system.
