Go With the Flow - Assessing Scour Erosion in Pittsburgh Lock and Dam structures
Recently, SEAS partnered with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) in Pittsburgh to perform critical underwater surveys at lock and dam projects. These structures play a crucial role in managing waterways, but over time, water can erode their foundations, potentially weakening them. That’s where our team steps in. These structures do more than control water flow; they’re essential for preventing floods, supporting navigation for shipping, and maintaining a steady water supply for communities and industries.
A Full Circle Moment: SEAS's Boundary Survey Uncovers a Family Legacy
Full Circle Moment: While surveying a 325-acre property near Arlington, TN, SEAS team members Kevin and Cody Cannon uncovered a touching piece of their family's history. Among old boundary markers, they found their father’s name from a 1979 survey. With their dad having passed away a few years ago, this discovery was a poignant reminder of the legacy he left behind. It was more than just a survey—it was a heartfelt tribute to family and tradition.
“Trash Talk” - SEAS Enhances Waste Management Efforts at Perdido Landfill with Advanced sUAS Survey
SEAS recently conducted sUAS (drone) surveys over 550 acres of the Perdido Landfill in Escambia County, Florida, using LiDAR and high-resolution imagery. We produced Digital Elevation Models, surface models, and ortho imagery, providing crucial data for accurate volumetric calculations and future planning. Our work supports efficient waste management, contributing to a cleaner, more sustainable community.
