This industrial engineering project was successfully proposed and planned for the client Al Fanar Projects in Madina, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).<\/span><\/p>\n The official techno-commercial proposal was finalized on December 29, 2024, under the Power Utilities and Grid Infrastructure sector.<\/span><\/p>\n The total field schedule and data processing window was completed within a strict timeline of 15 working days under favorable weather conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n We took on the assignment to map out a long and narrow strip of land for Al Fanar Projects in Madina, KSA.<\/span><\/p>\n The main objective of this assignment was to gather highly accurate ground elevation and asset data for a new 110 kV double-circuit overhead and underground power line.<\/span><\/p>\n The field mapping work covered a total survey distance of 44 kilometers long with a Right of Way width of 34 meters wide.<\/span><\/p>\n By surveying this massive pathway, the team provided the core layout maps that construction crews needed to build the electrical grid safely and without errors.<\/span><\/p>\n To complete this work without relying on flying drones, the field team successfully handled a variety of high-precision ground measurement devices.<\/span><\/p>\n The team operated 4 high-precision satellite GPS and GNSS devices to communicate with global networks and calculate exact ground spots down to the centimeter.<\/span><\/p>\n For areas with crossing wires and tall towers, the crew utilized 1 high-precision Total Station to measure exact three-dimensional angles and physical distances.<\/span><\/p>\n The team also deployed 1 Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to safely scan and identify items located directly underneath the dirt surface.<\/span><\/p>\n All collected field data was checked right on the site using field laptops and tablets running specialized surveying software.<\/span><\/p>\n The entire operational crew, which consisted of 4 professional surveyors and 1 helper, was fully outfitted with standard safety kits including helmets, bright high-visibility vests, and heavy-duty safety boots while traveling across the route in 2 dedicated field cars.<\/span><\/p>\n The daily operations were divided into clear technical tasks to ensure complete accuracy along the transmission line.<\/span><\/p>\n The first phase involved setting up a secure ground control network in accessible zones to anchor all upcoming survey points.<\/span><\/p>\n The crew utilized official reference points provided by the Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) as the primary baseline for the route mapping.<\/span><\/p>\n Once the baseline was fixed, the team walked the route to capture ground elevation data points at strict 25×25 meter grid intervals.<\/span><\/p>\n During this walkthrough, the surveyors located and documented every natural and man-made obstacle within the Right of Way, including intersecting overhead lines, light poles, and telecom towers.<\/span><\/p>\n The final operational phase focused on building and measuring physical guideposts.<\/span><\/p>\n The team constructed 5 Permanent Reference Monuments (PRMs) spaced exactly every 10 kilometers along the route.<\/span><\/p>\n Each monument was made using a 3-inch PVC pipe filled with concrete, standing 60 centimeters high above the ground and buried 40 centimeters deep for long-term hold.<\/span><\/p>\n The team measured these permanent monuments using static satellite observation to ensure all mathematical errors were removed.<\/span><\/p>\n Additionally, the team installed 45 Survey Benchmarks (BMs) every 1 kilometer or at every major path turn along the route.<\/span><\/p>\n These benchmarks consisted of metal sticks set securely into the concrete or asphalt and were measured using fast Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) satellite observation referenced back to the nearest permanent monuments.<\/span><\/p>\n At the end of the 15-day timeline, all raw data points were fully processed and formatted into standard engineering files for the client’s design team.<\/span><\/p>\n The first set of files consisted of clean CSV text files which provided structured data tables showing exact point numbers and descriptions.<\/span><\/p>\n The second output included XYZ files which displayed the plain text geospatial point coordinates for every mapped area, clearly listing the longitude, latitude, and elevation values.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Finally, the crew converted the entire land map into 3D digital CAD blueprints which allowed the construction engineers to load the data straight into their building platforms.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Project Profile Summary This industrial engineering project was successfully proposed and planned for the client Al Fanar Projects in Madina, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).
