National Surveyors Week!
Today we’re highlighting Robert “Burt” Thompson, P.S.M., our Surveying and Mapping AVP, for his nearly 30 years of experience in the surveying industry.
Burt has worked across a wide range of projects including boundary and topographic surveys, aerial photogrammetry control, construction staking, subdivisions, and infrastructure development. His experience spans roads, bridges, utilities, flood control studies, and major building construction, supporting projects from planning through construction.
Throughout his career, Burt has contributed to important public infrastructure work with organizations such as Florida Department of Transportation, Polk County Roads and Drainage Division, Polk County Natural Resources and Drainage Division, the City of Lakeland, and the City of Sebring.
From transportation corridors and wastewater facilities to environmental projects and site development, Burt’s expertise in surveying, mapping, and construction layout has played a key role in delivering accurate data and supporting successful projects across Florida.
Thank you, Burt, for your dedication to the profession and the impact your work continues to make.
