GIS Analysis Cuts Costs for Site Selection and Materials Development

Concrete and asphalt suppliers, aggregate producers and road builders seeking new sources for crushed stone, sand, gravel, clay, borrow or fill can now use state-of-the-art technology to identify prime locations.

Using proprietary databases and GIS technology, the confidential service provides project specific maps and aerial photographs showing:

• Transportation routes (road and rail)
• Land Use
• Parcel size and ownership (where available)
• Glacial landforms and deposits
• Soils & overburden thickness
• Bedrock type, depth and thickness

Using these maps and photographs, Susan Courter, a professional geologist, determines whether a site is suitable for materials development and a candidate for further testing. 

“We’ll give you a thumbs up or thumbs down on the site, making it clear whether it is worth the time and expense to test the site for materials,” said Susan Courter, President, Courter Resource Group.  “The database we’ve developed can help companies of all sizes identify only the most promising sites for testing. This is a great tool for controlling materials development costs.”

To celebrate the new service, Courter Resource Group is offering introductory pricing of $399 per section for analysis.  For an additional cost, analyses of zoning requirements and environmental sensitivities can also be provided.
