Services
Overview
Our services are provided individually or combined depending on your project needs. Our work is non-invasive and is designed to support planning, survey, and cultural resource management processes.
Pre-project consultation
Review of your project's scope, site conditions, and survey approach to determine the suitability, logistics, and coverage strategy.
Pedestrian Survey
GPS tracking and sub-meter documentation of surface points such as depressions, markers, fence posts, or landscape elements often related to historic burials.
Detection Dog Survey
GPS tracking and sub-meter documentation of detection dog responses.
Aerial Imagery
High-resolution aerial photography of surveyed areas collected by an FAA Part 107 certified sUAS pilot.
GIS Analysis
Custom geospatial analysis to support site evaluation and survey planning.
- Terrain modeling
- Hydrology and drainage analysis
- Soil and environmental overlays
- Historic map and photo overlays
- Probability mapping to prioritize areas of interest
Integration with Other Methods
Detection results can be used alongside:
- Archival research
- Geophysical survey (e.g., GPR)
- GIS analysis
- Archaeological investigation
Deliverables
Projects include documentation suitable for planning, consultation, and integration with CRM workflows.
Project Summary
Overview of the survey request, including project context, location, and objectives
Background Research
Summary of relevant historical or archival information, including materials provided by the client
Methods Overview
Description of survey approach, detection dog teams, and equipment used (GPS, drone platforms, and data processing methods)
Survey Mapping
- GPS-tracked survey coverage with buffered search areas
- Locations of detection alerts (TFRs)
- Mapped features such as grave markers, vegetation, fencing, and other relevant site elements
Geospatial analysis (as needed)
Supporting analysis such as terrain, hydrology, or environmental factors used to inform interpretation
Interpretation of results
Integrated assessment based on detection, environmental context, and mapped data
Recommendations
Guidance for next steps, such as:
- Additional investigative methods
- Monitoring or avoidance
Data package (optional)
GIS-compatible files and spatial data for client use, further analysis, or integration with other project work
