In doing this economic anaysis, were you able to also look at increase in production rate or did you just factor in savings in surveying services? What sort of increase in productivity did you see? THanks

What is the current method of tracking production values for fleets of 777s or the like? Has anyone heard of using RFid tags to monitor their movement past a point on a haul road. THis can in turn be dumped into something like an excel file for load counts and other production values. This excel...

Iam thinking GIS because of its capabilities in handling databases, and the use of the Avenue language to create add-ins etc more specific to the job. THere is also the potential for modeling, not as advanced as say hydraulic modeling of some kind, but the capability does exist for the GIS...

Hello, I am currently in school and am doing a research project on the use of GIS to optimize earthmoving operations. Having been on projects where sometimes amounts greater than 6M CY are moved, i most definetly see reason and feasibility for implementation of such a system that can aid in...

Hello, I am on a project where there has been more than 1 million yrds of ash excavation and still a good bit more to go. Fortunetly, we had tests done on our ash here (all from the same source though, in fact, just as peice somewhat useless information, this coal allowed the utility to pay for...

I am not familiar with the handheld market, however a friend of mine is interning on a project where the handheld GPS unit is also a data collector ( i know you don't need all that) being used to collect data on every culvert catch basin, etc. for future GIS/hydro modeling. but it apparently has...

Andyrens, First thing's first....I am not a surveyor. What form does your raw survey data take? Is it a spreadsheet? ESRI has allowed for table "joining" with about any spreadsheet, geodatabase, etc. imaginable.... note that your x pos. will be placed into one column, y pos. another, etc...
