LAMP technology originated in California, but after noting its success in performing precision aerial mapping, ACA pioneered its use in Florida in 1997.
At first ACA's use of LAMP mapping from a helicopter platform was challenging. But after months of extensive testing, ACA perfected this process and today has become the leader in LAMP, providing a safer and cost effective solution to mapping the nation's highways.
The need for a safer method was long overdue. Between 1992 and 1998, the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) reported 841 worker fatalities in highway and street construction. The majority of fatalities in this industry occurred in work zones.
LAMP would provide protection to client and the field crews as they no longer needed to be in the traffic lanes. LAMP is highly regarded in the industry for reducing injuries and potential fatalities inherent in the days of more conventional survey methods.
A growing number of states, including Georgia and Florida now use ACA's LAMP for mapping their highways.
To date, ACA has completed close to 1000 miles of LAMP mapping. The finished product constitutes a huge improvement in detail over standard field survey collection techniques, thereby increasing its usefulness to the engineer in the design process.
