The surveying company have recently been working on the Fairhaven and Church Scar Sea Defence Project, otherwise known as Granny’s Bay, which is part of a £22m coastal protection project along the Fylde Coast. The Sea Defence redevelopment is being carried out to replace the failing and existing coastal concrete defences originally built in the 1890s. The completion of the new concrete defences will provide a new lease of life to the promenade and help protect the area from coastal erosion while benefitting over 2,600 properties in the region. Councillor Thomas Threlfall has described the completion of the project as making the seaside resort fit for the next century; whilst Councillor Roger Small, who is chairman of the Operational Management Committee, has described the project as the final piece of the jigsaw to the new foreshore.

Site Communding Services Ltd自一开始就参与了该项目,最初对该站点进行了地形调查,并继续通过该计划进行计算和可视化,并随着其进行的进行计算和可视化。创始人兼公司总监说,“I feel the reason we were awarded this job is down to a long tradition of surveying experience, years of hard work and solid recommendations from previous clientele. From my perspective, the opportunity to get involved in a venture that would benefit the coastal environment was too exciting to pass on.”

地形调查是使用Leica Viva GS16 Smart Antenna,,,,Leica Viva TS16总站and controlled with using aLeica CS20 field controller. The data obtained supported the project’s design and was used as a control network for all the setting out on-site and machine control. The data was also used for volume calculations, helping minimise overall project costs.



From the beginning of the project, Site Surveying Services Ltd worked withVolkerStevin,,,,a company providing complex engineering solutions across a wide range of sectors including civil engineering, land remediation and regeneration, water and marine infrastructure and flood and coastal protection.“沃尔克斯汀(Volkerstevin)监督了海国防部的发展,我们直接在现场为公司进行了一些待办事项。第一手经历设备的质量,准确性和好处,导致Volkerstevin租赁并购买自己的Leica船队为该项目吸引了总站,亚博5分钟快三said Wood.

现场测量服务有限公司also worked closely withFox Brothers Ltd,,,,an earthworks and demolition contractors’ firm, to establish GPS machine control on the coastal zone of Fairhaven and Church Scar. To set up the grid to work on the coastal defence project, the surveying company relied onLeica Geo Office,,,,andLeica iCON software处理网络以及N4CE软件以处理3D文件。

According to Wood, the P40 has also helped his business grow and have a faster turnaround,“它在很少的时间内覆盖了如此之多的地面,我发现它非常非凡。我们能够利用高度详细的3D色点云来绘制复杂结构的内部并节省现场的工时。这意味着我们可以更快地四处旋转并回到那里。”
