Through an existing On-Call agreement to provide GIS Consulting Services between GdB and Westchester County, GdB assisted the GIS team to perform a GIS Needs Assessment across multiple County departments. Westchester County has been collecting various forms of geospatial data from projects performed by County staff as well as contractors and consultants. A Needs Assessment was suggested to the County GIS team as a first step towards organizing and standardizing the Drone and LiDAR data so that the data can be used and leveraged throughout the County. The GdB team was uniquely positioned to complete this task with Westchester County given our Land Surveying, LiDAR/Drone, and GIS technology expertise.

NYS Thruway Service Area Redesign
GdB field crews performed detailed topographic and utility surveys for each site, approximately 1.5 to 2 acres in size. All existing structures, pavement edges, sidewalks, curbing, ADA improvements, fences, gates, retaining walls, signage, lighting and visable surface hardware for utilities, and any other planimetric features were located.
GW Bridge Rehab of the Trans-Manhattan Expressway Overpass
GdB completed a survey of approximately 3,000 linear feet of roadway along the Trans-Manhattan Expressway Overpass. The topographic and utility survey of the local roads was performed using a combination of stationary LiDAR (High Density Laser Scanning) and traditional robotic total station survey methods. The stationary LiDAR allowed GdB to capture enough detail needed to create surface mapping contours at 0.2 foot intervals. Total Station surveying was used to complete the utility survey as well.
