Company History
Suttles Surveying,
P.A of Marion, North Carolina was established in 1983 with a
second office in Morganton, North Carolina since 1984. Both
offices are recognized for providing a full range of professional
surveying services. Suttles Surveying undertakes an ongoing basis
of land surveying and mapping in digital and hard copy form, and
currently has the capacity available, to deliver digital data in
many various formats. Services include the development of digital
terrain models, compilation of planimetric and topographic field
data for the production of base maps normally used by engineers
in the design of almost any structure. A partial list of
construction projects includes roadway layout, parking layout,
water treatment and distribution systems layout, and surveying of
highways, railroads, airports as well as construction staking for
almost any facility. Suttles Surveying field and office
operations are equipped with state-of-the-art surveying hardware
and software. Field data capture is accomplished using Topcon
total station theodolites and Corvallis Microtechnology data
collectors with C&G surveying software. Control is
established using single and dual frequency Trimble geodetic
grade GPS ( Global Positions System ) receivers.
Office efficiency is acquired by the use of PC based systems
linked by a Windows NT and Red Hat Linux Network. Software consists of Autocadd
Land Desktop Developement 2000i software. C&G Surveying
software is also utilized for coordination of field crews. Data
transfer from office to field crews is accomplished by modem and
fax. Graphic data output is achieved on a Encad Graphics Plotter
with a 600 x 600 dpi resolution. Data is stored on
Raid Level 1 disk drives and CD-R for permanent record.
To support production, Suttles Surveying P.A. has an experienced
staff which includes Registered Land Surveyors, some are
registered in serveral states, software specialist, CAD
technicians and various support staff. Staff members are included
in each phase of project preparation and production, working
closely with clients to ensure that each stage of the production
process is delivered to specification in a timely and cost
efficient manner.
This interactive production process is further strengthened by
the application of a comprehensive and rigorous program of
quality assurance checks at the beginning and end of each major
production phase. This program identifies potential problems at
an early stage and enables staff members to institute corrective
action with a minimum of time lost. Suttles Surveying is
committed to ensuring completion of each project to the highest
standards of quality, accuracy and efficiency.
