Topographic

Topographic has been providing land surveying services for the construction of electric transmission lines for more than thirty years. Although John Keating's focus in the early years was providing surveying services to oil and gas companies, the offering of services expanded as his company matured. By 1975, Topographic was taking on the difficult surveying challenges of electric transmission line construction in the dense woods of east Texas. Our experienced surveyors and their crews were also tested in similar terrain in Louisiana. As early as the late 1970's, Topographic was working very hard to use new technology to do a better job of surveying for power line construction. In those days EDM's (Electronic Distance Measuring devices) were just beginning to be used, and we used them to set project control and establish centerline PI's.
