Duke Energy, tracing its origins to a hydroelectric power station built in 1900, has evolved into a Fortune 150 company based in Charlotte, North Carolina. It serves 8.2 million electricity customers and supplies natural gas to 1.6 million customers across six and five states, respectively. Duke Energy and its subsidiaries are committed to pursuing clean, reliable, and affordable energy solutions.
Operating in seven Southeast and Midwest states, Duke Energy needs a range of geospatial services for its enterprise activities. These services include surveys, mapping, and data collection for various purposes such as control surveys, land and easement boundary surveys, topographic surveys, vegetation surveys, and more.
In 2020, GPI Geospatial and Duke Energy entered into a 3-year agreement for these services, with GPI Geospatial successfully completing over 300 tasks totaling over $3 million to date. GPI Geospatial’s comprehensive geospatial services range from construction staking and boundary surveys to high density aerial lidar and photogrammetry projects to support PLS-CADD modeling. GPI Geospatial is one of few firms that Duke has approved to perform aerial surveying services for their assets; GPI Geospatial regularly acquires aerial lidar and imagery data for other Duke Energy contractors for their projects.
