The Power of Surveys: Understanding Their Importance and Types

A survey is a method of collecting information by doing relevant research and using technology to analyze the data, and condition of a specific area or mapping out the construction area. This data is important for planning, designing, and constructing different projects. Dolphin Engineer understand the importance of surveys in various industries. The survey is an essential part of our service, we have been providing accurate reports and reliable results to our clients for over two decades. In this blog, we understand the importance of surveys and the different kinds of surveys we do.

Why survey are important?

Surveys provide researchers with reliable, usable, primary data to inform. They are important because the data comes directly from the individuals you have identified in your goal. Surveys give you a detailed, systematic way to view and analyze your data.  Surveys play a major role in gathering data, opinions, and feedback from clients. Accurate survey data also helps avoid costly mistakes and rework, making the project more cost-efficient. Additionally, surveys ensure that projects comply with local, state, and federal regulations, preventing legal issues and fines.

Types of surveys we do-

Topographical Survey- Topographic Surveys are worn to recognize and map the shape of the ground and existing features on the plane of the earth or a little above or below the earth's surface (i.e. trees, buildings, streets, walkways, manholes, utility poles, retaining walls, etc.). This type of topographic survey can be very favorable to homeowners, industrial owners, or even for land under an edifice. Land may include hills, trees, fences, buildings, and ravines. If the purpose of the survey is to serve as a base map for the design of a residence or building of some type or design a road or driveway.

Water Supply Survey- A pipeline survey is the initial step in planning and installing a safe water, gas, or oil pipeline. Dolphin Survey Engineering provides a significant and lucrative alignment for pipe laying and prepares the necessary land accusation planning by Cadastral. Solar Power Plant Surveys- We conduct surveys for the installation of solar power stations. Solar power stations have a basic need to capture as ample sunlight available as possible. There are certain conditions where the resource is available in ample like deserts while some areas get the bare minimum of sunlight in certain parts of the year. 

River Survey- Dolphin Engineering are expert in river surveys we have a group of professionals who perform their work in the best manner. River survey helps in analyzing the depth and width of the river and also helps in analyzing the flow of the waves. It helps to gather accurate information about the river. This survey helps in analyzing the temperature of the river. This survey includes two things cross-sections and contour maps.

Bathymetric Survey The bathymetric test helps in measuring the depth of the water body. This survey helps in gathering information regarding underwater and also helps in preparing the map. There are various techniques used to measure the depth. This survey helps in collecting accurate information about the sea.

Unlocking the Power of Location-Based Services: Your Ultimate Guide!

A location-based service (LBS) is a service provided by software for mobile device apps that requires information on the location of the mobile device. The application collects geodata, which are real-time data obtained by one or more monitoring technologies.

Technological advances and the rising availability of geolocation, GPS, and mobile data technologies have made LBS more sophisticated and accessible. This allows for the development of new and creative market applications and solutions. These elements will contribute to driving the market expansion. In addition, according to a research report by Astute Analytica, the Global Location-Based Services Market is likely to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.2% over the projection period from 2023 to 2031.

What are the various types and elements needed to run location-based services?

Push:

The application starts the location process when triggered or at daily intervals. The application then displays appropriate information to the user or device based on their geographic location. In this case, a user gets emailed an advertisement or discount after the application detects that he or she is close to a particular retail outlet.

Pull:

The application user begins the location-based service procedures. A user using a mobile map application, like Waze, to identify the nearest automated teller machine is an example of a query-based on-location service. Few services also allow users to look into concerts, restaurants, or athletic events and utilize apps like Yelp, or Google Maps.

The following four essential elements are necessary for location-based services to function:

An application that makes use of location-based services.

A geodata collection placement system.

A mobile network for data transmission or reception.

Analytics software that runs on an outside server to calculate and present relevant data to users based on their geographic location.

What technologies are utilized to track a person's location?

Based on the demand, mobile device hardware type, and available enabling technologies, various tracking mechanisms are frequently employed for location-based services:

GPS: The Global Positioning System is a network of satellites that exist only to assist in the location of objects on Earth. These satellites can be pinged by any device equipped with a GPS receiver (including various smartphones). This function enables the gadget to link up with a minimum of four satellites. 

Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi location tracking differs from previous approaches. Usually, a device only links to one Wi-Fi network at a time, thus removing the chance of triangulation. Instead, IP addresses are used in this location tracking.

Each network has an actual IP address that informs the rest of the internet where it is so that data may be sent over the internet infrastructure appropriately. When a user's phone joins a Wi-Fi network, it combines with the physical IP address of that network, enabling location services to determine their current location.

Cellular technology: Cellular tracking functions similarly to GPS. User device links to cellular towers rather than satellites. In general, they'll be within the reach of at least two of the towers, allowing the system to utilize triangulation to pinpoint their location.
