Dewberry will map approximately 13,600 square miles of land across 12 counties in Utah under a mapping service contract from the U.S. Geological Survey. The company said Thursday it will collect and analyze data using a light detection and ranging system for the project area encompassing the counties of Cache, Carbon, Dagget, Duchesne, Emery, Grand, Morgan, Iron, Weber, Summit, Washington and Uintah.

The U.S. Geological Survey has tapped Dewberry to obtain, process and build 3D elevation data that will cover nearly 42.3K-square miles within Southern Idaho from quality levels one and two lidar datasets.

Dewberry will help the U.S. Geological Survey identify the impact of Hurricane Maria on Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands through the collection of topographic data via light detection and ranging. The company said Wednesday it will gather and process Quality Level 1 lidar data under the USGS Geospatial Product and Services …

Woolpert has started to collect light detection and ranging elevation data across 49 Tennessee counties in support of three lidar projects managed by the U.S. Geological Survey. Two of the three contracts USGS awarded to Woolpert support the agency’s 3D Elevation Program that seeks to establish a national map through data collection with lidar technology, the company said …

Woolpert has received a five-year multi-million contract from the U.S. Geological Survey to assist in mapping and surveying work to help USGS fulfill its geospatial data requirements. The agency’s National Geospatial Technical Operations Center will oversee the Geospatial Product and Services Contract 3 as part of USGS’ efforts to collect geospatial data throughout the U.S. …

Woolpert has purchased three light detection and ranging systems from Hexagon subsidiary Leica Geosystems in an effort to expand its airborne data acquisition services. Jeff Lovin, senior vice president and director of government solutions at Woolpert, said in a statement released Tuesday the company will use the LIDAR-based Leica ALS80 aerial laser …

Woolpert has been awarded a contract to assess the capability of light detection and ranging sensor platforms to support the U.S. Geological Survey’s 3D Elevation Program. The lidar sensor technology has “the ability to fly at higher altitudes while acquiring data at an increased point density,” John Gerhard, project director …
