When heavy rainfall caused a landslide and blocked Oahu’s 𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐢 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐰𝐚𝐲, engineers needed to understand site conditions, assess slope stability, and plan a safe response that avoided further disturbance. With steep, unstable terrain and limited site access, 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, so Dudek’s Mapping and Surveying team mobilized quickly to conduct drone surveys and a cloud-based workflow to 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐢𝐧 𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥-𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞. Having immediate access to accurate GIS data led to 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬, 𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧-𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐤𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 to support 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲. ➡️ 𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐩𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐠𝐞𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐬. 🔗 𝐖𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲?
