Technology-Minded Surveyors are Better Equipped

TREKK’s use of combined technology tools, UAS, SLAM and a variety of mobile and static LiDAR platforms, help us work safer and faster, gathering more complete information both above and below ground. With this abundance of information, the software we use to manage and interpret the data is becoming more specific. Integrating workflows and newly developed artificial intelligence (AI) tools are helping us work smarter and faster, especially when the tools we use to gather this information are more robust.
