Right of Way EngineeringFurtado & Associates (F&A) creates project base maps and easement exhibits for alignments, including surveying and locating public and private utility infrastructure for utility mapping. F&A provides topographic surveys of surface features in full detail from intersections, including building lines/corners, traffic striping and pavement markings, as well as location of traffic signal equipment, signal heads, overhead utilities & supports, and overhead trolley wires & supports. F&A also works with designers to pick up survey requests as needed. Services also include underground utility location and potholing surveying.

3D LIDAR ScanningLight Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) is an innovative surveying solution that incorporates LiDAR sensors, cameras and position/navigation equipment to collect point data quickly and accurately. Furtado & Associates (F&A) owns and operates a variety of Trimble, Leica, and Z&F High-Definition Laser Scanners which gives us the ability to collect large amounts of data in a short amount of time with a high degree of accuracy and detail. LiDAR scans can be quickly converted into topographical maps or 3D modeling of as-built structures to support further development.

Drone PhotogrammetryDrone photogrammetry offers a fast, cost-effective and often safer method for Furtado & Associates (F&A) to collect aerial imagery and scan points required for accurate mapping, verification, and site plans. Photogrammetry transforms 2D images into 3D models, allowing a 3-dimensional view, which helps to interpret the surveyed area in more depth. With our licensed drone pilot, F&A has the ability to establish scan points around the building or area in question so that there is a clear line of sight to the columns which were surveyed.
