Services
Civil Engineering
Our civil engineering team specializes in site development, utility systems, and roadway design for residential, commercial, and industrial projects. We manage permitting processes and regulatory compliance while optimizing land use efficiency. Clients benefit from our technical precision and deep understanding of Washington state's municipal requirements.
Land Surveying
We provide topographic surveys, boundary determinations, and construction staking using advanced GPS and robotic equipment. Our surveyors ensure accurate spatial data for development planning and legal documentation. Clients rely on our meticulous fieldwork and rapid turnaround times for critical project phases.
Drone Services
Our FAA-certified drone operations capture high-resolution aerial imagery and LiDAR data for site analysis and progress monitoring. The Matrice M-300 RTK drone enables efficient mapping of large areas with survey-grade accuracy. This technology reduces field time while enhancing data comprehensiveness for engineering decisions.
Land Planning
We create master plans balancing client objectives with environmental constraints and zoning regulations. Our planners coordinate with local jurisdictions to streamline approvals for subdivisions, mixed-use developments, and infrastructure projects. Clients value our ability to translate complex requirements into actionable, profitable solutions.
Laser Scanning
Terrestrial laser scanning captures detailed as-built conditions for existing structures and terrain. We convert point cloud data into precise digital models for renovation projects and construction verification. This technology minimizes field revisits while improving design accuracy for complex sites.
