With the advent of Global Positioning System (GPS), many contractors are migrating to machine controlled grade operations. GPS controlled systems offer a wide array of applications from mass excavation to concrete and asphalt paving.

At Bertsch-Frank & Associates we firmly believe that this new technology is not merely a fad, but quite possibly the largest change in operations that site work contractors have seen in recent years. One of the mainstay requirements of a successful machine controlled site is an accurate three-dimensional model of the project site and that’s where our expertise comes in play. Most designs for a site plan are exactly what the title infers: a "design". We widen the focus of our efforts into not merely transferring a set of construction plans to an uploadable format, but augmenting the design to provide positive drainage, pavement smoothness, and other such desirable elements.

Our staff has extensive experience with both Trimble and Topcon systems and the file requirements of their software. From the on-set of your machined controlled project, Bertsch-Frank & Associates can quickly have you up and running on a precise control network and a solid three-dimensional model.
