GTS has been providing surveying and mapping services since its inception in 1959. Currently we have six (6) survey crews, including four (4) registered surveyors. Each crew is equipped with state-of-the-art survey technology.

The professionals on our staff are licensed to provide services throughout the mid-Atlantic region. We utilize Global Positioning Systems (GPS) to determine geographic positions precisely and efficiently. Changes in GPS technology have enhanced our ability to attain satellite signals faster at setup and enabled us to download data quicker. With three receivers, our staff is able to maximize system capabilities and increase productivity.

GTS maintains CADD capabilities firm-wide, including AutoCAD with Softdesk and MicroStation with InRoads. Routine GIS work is done in either AutoCAD Map, MicroStation Geographics, or Arcview, and our staff has extensive workstation Arc/Info experience. In addition, the GTS team has extensive field equipment and computer systems.

Our field equipment includes Electronic Distance Measurement (EDM) Total Stations with Electronic Data Collectors, Digital and Automatic Levels, and multiple GPS Receivers and Recorders. CADD software packages are used with a networked IBM compatible system supported by digitizing tables, and three-color inkjet plotters.
