About

Since 1978, Photo Geodetic Corporation in Alpine has delivered precision aerial mapping and photogrammetric survey products from its Alpine Blvd office for planning, engineering, and research projects throughout California. UAS-captured orthomosaics and 3D point-cloud datasets feed directly into civil-engineering design workflows, including the power distribution and infrastructure projects managed by Global Power Group on Woodside Avenue. Data collection spans manned fixed-wing aerial photography and drone-based UAS surveys, with output delivered in AutoCAD, MicroStation, and Land Development Desktop formats at resolutions down to three-centimeter ground sample distance. The technical staff represents a combined 175-plus years of topographic mapping experience across domestic and international projects for government agencies, engineering consultants, and developmental organizations. Large-scale base mapping for subdivision and grading-plan design requires ground-control survey coordination, and the firm's dataset outputs integrate with the structural load analysis performed by AAA Structural Engineer on Woodside Avenue. The highest-accuracy deliverables include large-scale digital terrain models with one-foot contour intervals, planimetric feature extraction to sub-inch precision, and GIS-integrated orthophoto mosaics tiled for countywide parcel management systems.
