RTR Team Addition

RTR Welcomes Mike Kunkel

RTR is proud to announce the addition of Mike Kunkel as we continue to grow and expand. Mike will be our Technology Services Manager as well as Surveyor and will be part of the Survey & CAD Group in our Hellertown office.

A graduate of Penn State Mike has been in the environmental science, engineering, and construction industry for over 20 years starting professionally as a G.I.S. Forester in Doylestown, PA. He has worked as Survey CAD Tech, Wetland Scientist, GPS/Robotic Surveyor, and Unmanned Drone Pilot. Mike holds a Wetland Delineation Certification from Rutgers and is licensed by the FAA as a certified unmanned drone pilot (sUAS).

Mike will allow RTR Survey to expand into the mining sector as well as explore the use of drones in aerial surveying and other applications. RTR welcomes Mike to our ever expanding close-knit team of highly experienced and multi-talented individuals.

Working Smarter

Working Smarter

RTR utilizes state of the art software from Autodesk, Faro and Microsoft to automate the creation of survey drawings and designs, 3d laser scans and outage sequence drawings.

Site analysis showing boundary, topography, slopes & elevations in Autodesk Civil3D 2019.

RTR surveying drawings are processed extremely efficiently using Autodesk Civil3d in the dynamic manner it is intended to be used. We’ve created a template based, automated process which combines the import of field point codes created to work with pre-set description keys, point groups and styles to enable us to create existing ground contours minutes after importing raw field data. Our CAD department established standards that utilize the latest enhancements in the Autodesk Architecture, Engineering and Construction suite.

Data linked outage drawing in AutoCAD LT 2019.

RTR outage drawings are created using proprietary Excel spreadsheet templates designed to extract and manipulate data created by our outage engineers. That data is dynamically linked to drawings created by our outage group. The automated system we’ve developed enables changes to be made instantaneously and effortlessly (including automated Gantt charts) and allows engineers to focus on engineering rather than drafting when inevitable changes are necessary.

RTR 3d models are created using Faro laser scanners to build detailed as-built drawings of existing structures as well as to collect ground topography of existing sub-stations. Utilizing Autodesk Recap Pro to edit and Faro Pointsense Plant to model collected point clouds we create accurate existing ground information which, when compared to design grades we create using Civil3D, allow us to create accurate cut/fill reports of any location or to create 3d models of any site or structure.

Software changes and improves at a fast pace, at RTR we believe in working smarter by putting the most current versions of state of the art software in the hands of experienced, capable staff (which includes a former Autodesk developer with 30 years of experience in software development, automation and customization). We approach problem solving with teamwork, ingenuity,  creativity and a focus on quality, efficiency and accuracy.
