Office efficiency is acquired by the use of PC based systems linked by a Windows XT and CentOS Linux Networks. Software consists of Autocadd Land Desktop Development software. Carlson Software, and C&G Surveying software is also utilized for coordination of field crews. Data transfer from office to field crews is accomplished by data collection. Graphic data output is achieved on a Cannon IPF 9000 and Cannon W8400 Plotter with a 2400 x 2400 dpi resolution. Data is stored on Raid Level 10 disk drives and DVD-RW for permanent record.
