LaBella surveyors Dustin Utter and Damion Lozier demonstrated basic survey techniques for a group of interns, young engineers, and other curious staff at our Latham, NY office. They covered essential topics such as setting up modern surveying equipment, establishing a base line, taking measurements, and recording data. A topographic map of the survey area will be prepared and used as a training tool for entry level engineers, providing them with a map they can compare with real-world conditions.

The Poughkeepsie Rural Cemetery (PRC) is a 165-acre historic cemetery and certified arboretum overlooking the Hudson River in Poughkeepsie, New York. Like many historic cemeteries, the site’s data was largely paper-based, and there was a need to bring new technology and best practices into the cemetery’s operations. LaBella’s Data Intelligence team worked with our Survey & Mapping group to create a Geographic Information System (GIS) base map of sections, plots, and lots. We digitized records, created web maps, and developed an interactive web and mobile app to enhance visitor experiences and streamline staff workflows. The tools we created allow visitors to explore the grounds, learn about notable trees, and navigate with ease using our GIS technology.

Today, the sunshine was beaming for the Sunshine Committee event at our Buffalo, NY office.
