Year
2021

We were commissioned to support the development of a new 193 kV overhead transmission line extending 33 km through a remote sand dune region. The project required complete field surveying and design-grade mapping to enable accurate route planning, engineering design, and construction preparation.

Our responsibilities covered the entire 100 m wide proposed route corridor and included:

  • Conducting detailed topographic surveys across complex and shifting sand dune terrain
  • Producing full survey mapping of the proposed OHL route alignment
  • Surveying catenary profiles of several existing transmission lines intersecting the corridor
  • Supplying design-grade geospatial data for engineering, access planning, and structural layout

Outcome & Deliverables

Our final deliverables provided precise datasets required for routing, design, and construction planning, including:

  • AutoCAD drawings
  • Excel-based quantity and elevation reports
  • PDF maps and survey documentation
  • PLC CAD formats as requested by the engineering team

The outputs delivered reliable, high-accuracy geospatial information, enabling the client to complete design, prepare construction logistics, and plan tower placement and conductor clearances within a challenging desert environment.
