NV5 secures major surveying and mapping contract in North Carolina

NV5, a U.S.-based provider of technology-enabled engineering and consulting services, has been awarded a two-year, USD10 million contract by the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT). The contract covers a wide range of geospatial and utility services to support infrastructure planning and development across the state of North Carolina, located in the southeastern United States.

As part of the agreement, NV5 will provide advanced data collection and mapping solutions, including GPS surveying, mobile and terrestrial laser scanning, aerial imagery using unmanned aerial systems (UAS), Lidar acquisition and processing, and elevation data development. Additional services will include aerial mapping control, route location surveys, and subsurface utility engineering (SUE) to support transportation project planning and design.

To ensure the quality and consistency of aerial operations, NV5 will also supply dedicated UAS operators and manage all related workflows. These capabilities are expected to help NCDOT improve the accuracy, safety, and efficiency of infrastructure initiatives statewide.

“This award reflects our decades-long partnership with NCDOT and reinforces our commitment to supporting reliable, efficient, and forward-looking infrastructure across North Carolina,” said Ryan Lyttle, vice president of survey at NV5.
