The project required Stantec to retrace a previous survey
<br />and tie new control and monitoring stations to the network.
<br />Additionally, the Districts requested surface modeling of
<br />the canyon and the outlet of the canyon at the Pacific
<br />Ocean where a 150- to 200-foot vertical cliff existed. To
<br />collect the surface data Stantec used conventional and
<br />non-traditional methods.
<br />Photogrammetry provided for large-scale mapping
<br />while terrestrial methods (total stations) created a
<br />more detailed data set. Due to the vertical drop and
<br />the dangers of working near the slope, Stantec utilized
<br />an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to collect surface
<br />data without endangering staff safety. Together with the
<br />photogrammetric data, terrestrial data, and UAV data,
<br />Stantec was able to create a detailed model for monitoring
<br />and design purposes.
<br />This was the first time that the Districts had used UAV
<br />technology on a pipeline project. The project was delivered
<br />on time and on budget.
<br />IRWD Zone A to B and Zone A to C BPS, Irvine, CA,
<br />Project Surveyor
<br />Greg provided land surveying services required to design
<br />and build Zone A to B and Zone A to C BPS at PA 513
<br />Eastwood Village. Land surveying and mapping services
<br />included aerial control, right-of-way base mapping,
<br />topographic design surveying, and 10-scale mapping.
<br />Multiple On -Call Map Checking*, Public Municipalities
<br />Southern California, Quality Assurance/Quality
<br />Control Supervisor
<br />Greg has provided map checking services to numerous
<br />municipalities and other agencies for more than 10 years.
<br />Reviewing and verifying final maps, parcel maps, Records
<br />of Survey, Corner Records, certificates of compliance,
<br />lot line adjustments, legal descriptions, and plats for
<br />compliance and conformity with local and state regulations
<br />has allowed Greg to sharpen his QA/QC skills. Greg has
<br />provided map and survey document checking for the Cities
<br />of Irvine, Fullerton, Montebello, Covina, Baldwin Park, Bell
<br />Gardens, and Cudahy, as well as the County of Orange
<br />and others.
<br />Santiago Canyon College — Coastkeeper
<br />Demonstration Garden* 2008 , Project Leader
<br />Greg was the project leader providing boundary,
<br />topographic, and construction staking services for the
<br />Coastkeeper Demonstration Garden at Santiago Canyon
<br />College in Orange, California. The project involved
<br />topographically surveying portions of the college campus
<br />and a Metropolitan Water District (MWD) of Southern
<br />California pipeline easement traversing the campus. More
<br />than 2,500-feet of trails lined with native vegetation were
<br />laid, along with five complex vignettes constructed for
<br />students and visitors to study landscaping with native and
<br />drought -tolerant vegetation. The project required a high
<br />level of coordination between the college administrative
<br />staff; district leaders; the City of Orange; MWD; Orange
<br />County Coastkeepers; and several firms representing
<br />civil engineering, architecture, landscape architecture,
<br />electrical engineering, and other disciplines. The award -
<br />winning Coastkeeper Demonstration Garden remains
<br />a significant resource for the education community and
<br />neighbors —demonstrating the use and management
<br />of native vegetation, drought -tolerant plants, and best
<br />practices in conservation landscaping.
<br />On -Call Surveying and Mapping, Metropolitan Water
<br />District (MWD) of Southern California*, Metropolitan
<br />Water District (MWD) , County of Riverside, CA,
<br />Survey and Mapping Task Leader
<br />Greg led the effort to conduct boundary and topographic
<br />surveys over portions of MWD pipeline easements and
<br />related properties. The project included several miles of
<br />pipeline, as well as dozens of properties and easements.
<br />The boundary covered several Public Land Survey System
<br />Sections, as well as rancho boundaries. His deliverables
<br />included CADD files, point files, GIS .SHP files, and a
<br />Record of Survey map fled with the Riverside County
<br />Surveyor.
<br />Robert W, Goldsworthy Desalter* , WRD , Torrance,
<br />California , 2014, Project Surveyor
<br />The Goldsworthy Desalter expansion required
<br />implementing a control survey, centerline and right-of-
<br />way alignment survey, terrestrial topographic survey,
<br />and a photogrammetric survey. The project required
<br />a high -precision geodetic control survey to tie current
<br />conditions and control to the historic control used at the
<br />time the facility was first constructed. Additionally, the
<br />survey required setting seven aerial targets for correlation
<br />of imagery to ground conditions. Once the data was
<br />collected from photogrammetric processes, a ground
<br />survey of key topographic features was conducted. One
<br />innovation expanded the aerial coverage beyond the initial
<br />work limits in anticipation that the project scope could be
<br />revised to accommodate certain conditions. The additional
<br />photogrammetric coverage had no additional cost and
<br />remains available should WRD choose to revise the route
<br />or limits of design. The survey data was delivered on
<br />schedule and on budget in March 2014.
