Hydrographic Surveying on Goose Lake with Juergen Brunkhorst

Watch Widseth’s Juergen Brunkhorst, LS, CH, as he performs a hydrographic survey on Goose Lake. The Minnesota DNR retained Widseth to conduct a survey of the lakebed prior to the Department’s dredging project as well as periodic quantity surveys to measure the progress of the dredging operation. The removal of three to four feet of sediment from an eight-acre area of the lake improved fish habitat and boat access.

Widseth Surveyors Complete Aitkin County Remonumentation Project

Widseth’s survey team worked with Aitkin County on a remonumentation project to locate section corners in an area north of Lake Mille Lacs. The original corners in this location were established in 1858 by the United States Government Deputy Surveyor and his crew. It’s important to locate section corners because they serve as reference points for all other surveys. Aitkin County residents can feel confident moving forward knowing that their property surveys will be highly accurate.

Land of 10,000 Stakes — Why Construction Staking is Important

Construction staking ensures projects are built as designed and is an important part of any project. Contractors rely on the stakes for horizontal and vertical locations of project infrastructure. Our crews establish critical points using GPS and Robotic Total Stations to mark specific features — such as curbs, building footprints, utility lines, manholes, fire hydrants, catch basins, stormwater ponds, light poles, and more. If it’s going to be built, we stake it first.

Widseth field survey crews perform construction staking each year on all sorts of projects, including municipal streets & utilities, commercial developments, landfills, cell towers, pipelines, and home construction. We pound between 7,000 and 10,000 stakes into the ground each construction season!
