The Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD) has selected Dewberry to collect and process lidar topographic mapping data at a minimum of eight points per square meter for Pasco County, Florida.

The firm is providing geospatial technology services that will deliver products to assess, monitor, analyze, and manage water quality, water distribution, and flood control, and support future needs for the county. Additionally, Dewberry is collecting ground control data, creating digital elevation models, and delineating building footprints and impervious features to support SWFWMD and Pasco County. Lidar data acquisition was completed in January 2018.

“For the past decade, we’ve worked with water management districts in Florida to provide up-to-date lidar data and geospatial mapping services,” said Dewberry Vice President Amar Nayegandhi, CP, CMS, GISP. “We are excited to continue to support SWFWMD, and extend our data collection and production services from Hillsborough County to Pasco County.”
