Robinson featured in LidarNews Magazine for its work at the Goethals Bridge

HACKETTSTOWN, N.J. - June 26, 2013 - PRLog -- Robinson was featured in LidarNews Magazine for its work at the Goethals Bridge utilizing Low-Altitude Aerial Mapping Photography (LAMP) to provide analytical triangulation and topographic mapping services.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) has embarked on a project to provide the design, build, finance, and maintenance for a replacement to the 80 plus year old Goethals Bridge. The new bridge will be located directly south of the existing bridge.

The Goethals Bridge connects Elizabeth, New Jersey to Staten Island (New York City), near the Howland Hook Marine Terminal, Staten Island, New York over the Arthur Kill. Operated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, the span was one of the first structures built by the authority. On the New Jersey side it is located 2 exits south of the terminus for the New Jersey Turnpike-Newark Bay Extension. It is essential to moving cargo between airports and seaports and regional markets in the New York/New Jersey metropolitan area.

Robinson Aerial Surveys, Inc. (Robinson) was commissioned by PANYNJ to provide new color digital Low-Altitude Aerial Mapping Photography (LAMP), analytical triangulation and topographic mapping services at 1”=30’ scale in AutoCAD format adhering to Port Authority Mapping & CADD Standards. The PANYNJ chose LAMP because they realized that it is one of the best ways to develop very accurate three-dimensional models with only limited, if any, disruption to the heavy vehicular traffic on the bridge and its approaches. Robinson was selected due to its extensive experience in developing LAMP DTMs.
