City of Sioux Falls On-Call Survey
Project Description
After the City of Sioux Fall’s Professional Land Surveyor retired, they decided to not refill the position with another full-time surveyor. Instead, they contacted Infrastructure Design Group, Inc. to provide legal land surveying services on an “on call” basis. InfrastructureDG provides services such as plat and easement review, easement and legal description preparation, plats and topographic surveys as needed on a regular basis. The survey group also provides services for specific larger scale projects such as street and utility design through under the same on-call contract.
The city recently contracted an aerial mapping company to fly the entire city limits and 2 to 3 miles beyond city limits. InfrastructureDG provided all survey control through the on-call contract for the mapping company. 15 aerial targets were set along with establishing horizontal and vertical control utilizing a combination of adjusted post processed static network along with real time kinematic observations. This contract allows our team to work very closely with the city real estate, planning and engineering departments and staff.
