Land Surveyor in West Sacramento

West Sacramento incorporated on January 1, 1987, bringing Broderick, Bryte, West Sacramento, and the Southport area together into one city. Anything mapped before that date was mapped under Yolo County, and the older riverside neighborhoods carry lot patterns from long before incorporation, so boundary research here often crosses from county records into city records and back through early subdivision maps. The city is surrounded by river and levees. The West Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency's Southport project built a new 3.8-mile setback levee along the Sacramento River, and parcels near levees and the river need careful topography and an accurate picture of easements and encroachment limits before anyone designs on them.

The commercial side is industrial and waterfront. The Port of West Sacramento, open to deep-sea ships since 1963 on the Sacramento Deep Water Ship Channel, handles bulk and break-bulk cargo, and food and agricultural companies such as Nippon Shokken, TOMRA, and Bayer Crop Science have set up North American operations in the city. That brings ALTA/NSPS surveys for sales and financing, topographic surveys for new buildings, and as-built documentation for plant changes. For existing buildings and structures we provide 3D laser scanning on survey control, delivering registered point clouds and scan-to-CAD plans, sections, and elevations, and anchor bolt and steel verification on new construction.
