Cottonwood Creek Topography (Colorado Springs, Colorado)

Clark Land Surveying and Aerial Mapping Services teamed up on this project which was contracted with AMEC Earth & Environmental for the City of Colorado Springs. The work consisted of establishing a horizontal and vertical control network along this 1.4 mile mapping project.

Tasks included establishing photogrammetry panel points, field survey of obscured areas and locating utilities throughout the project area. Having the project within an urban area presented a challenge to ensure the panel points were not disturbed prior to the flight.

Clark staff reviewed the resulting map and added improvements such as manholes and culverts visible in the aerial photographs, as well as performing quality control checks in the field.
