Mather VA Hospital Survey and Mapping
Location: Rancho Cordova, California
Industry: Commercial Real Estate
Project Overview
Synergy Mapping, Inc., in partnership with GSP Consulting, successfully executed a topographic mapping project for the Mather VA Hospital site in Rancho Cordova, California. This initiative supported commercial real estate development on a sprawling 45-acre property, requiring detailed and precise geospatial data to guide planning, infrastructure design, and site grading.
Commercial real estate projects demand a foundation of reliable topographic and spatial data to ensure the success of planning and construction activities. For the Mather VA Hospital project, Synergy Mapping, Inc. provided a range of advanced mapping services, including aerial photography, planimetric mapping, and contour generation. By combining cutting-edge technology with meticulous attention to detail, the team delivered actionable insights that enabled stakeholders to make confident, informed decisions.
This project underscores Synergy Mapping, Inc.’s expertise in managing large-scale mapping tasks and addressing the unique challenges of commercial real estate development. With an unwavering commitment to precision and quality, the company exceeded expectations and provided critical data to support the site’s successful planning and development.
Mapping Scope
The Mather VA Hospital project’s mapping scope was tailored to address the specific needs of commercial real estate stakeholders. The survey focused on capturing accurate topographic and surface feature data to guide site evaluation, grading, and infrastructure placement.
Deliverables included high-resolution aerial imagery, detailed planimetric mapping, and precise contour maps with half-foot intervals. These datasets offered a clear and comprehensive understanding of the 45-acre site, enabling stakeholders to assess the property’s potential and plan infrastructure development effectively.
Synergy Mapping, Inc.’s approach ensured that the mapping scope aligned with industry standards for commercial real estate projects, providing data that supported both immediate project goals and long-term planning efforts.
Challenges and Solutions
Large-scale commercial real estate developments often present challenges related to precision, scale, and the usability of geospatial data. The Mather VA Hospital project was no exception, requiring innovative approaches to overcome these complexities and deliver exceptional results.
Challenge 1
Capturing Precise Topographic Data for a Large-Scale Commercial Site
The expansive 45-acre site necessitated the accurate collection of topographic data to inform site planning and design. Variations in terrain and surface features required a robust mapping approach to ensure spatial accuracy.
Solution 1
High-Resolution Aerial Photography and Digital Terrain Modeling (DTM)
Synergy Mapping, Inc. utilized high-resolution aerial photography at a scale of 1”=166’ to capture detailed visual data of the site. This imagery served as the foundation for generating advanced digital terrain models (DTMs) that provided precise representations of the property’s topography.
The integration of aerial photography with DTM technology ensured that stakeholders received accurate and comprehensive geospatial data, enabling them to evaluate the site effectively and plan infrastructure development with confidence.
Challenge 2
Providing Detailed Elevation Data to Support Infrastructure Planning
Accurate elevation data was critical for site grading, drainage design, and infrastructure placement. The project required highly detailed contour mapping to meet these demands.
Solution 2
Half-Foot Contour Mapping at a 1”=20’ Map Scale
To address this challenge, Synergy Mapping, Inc. generated contour maps with half-foot intervals, supporting a detailed map scale of 1”=20’. These contour maps provided stakeholders with accurate elevation data essential for designing infrastructure and managing drainage effectively.
The high-resolution contour mapping exceeded industry standards for commercial real estate projects, ensuring that all deliverables supported the project’s grading and design requirements.
