Gromatici Land Surveying was started by Eric J. Ackerman, PLS 8226 to provide the community with quality surveys while being more cost effective than many of the bloated companies serving this area. Instead of layers of management and overhead for training I can provide you with a professional product, performed by the professional. We have AutoCAD 2012 with smart layering standards for you design professionals on topographic mapping projects. Many times requests will be made to simply survey the property. We will always attempt to save you money by asking questions, and making sure you're not paying for something you don't need. Each survey proposal can be customized to your project's needs.
I have over 22 years experience in Land Surveying and Mapping from L.A. County to San Luis Obispo County.

Report
We have two offices located in Santa Barbara and Los Olivos with staff located in Santa Barbara, Solvang, Nipomo, and Atascadero to better serve the south and central coasts. We have two fully equiped trucks, with CAD staff. We also have a drone, for cost-effective and extremely accurate surveys. Eric is a Professional Land Surveyor, and a Certified Federal Surveyor and licensed in both Arizona and California. We are a small family owned company that works on small residential homes and also large multi-building projects.
Photogrametric and LiDAR drones! We can combine BOTH technologies to maximize the accuracy of both and save time and turn-around time. With our state-of-the-art drone, that has RTK onboard, and a D-RTK 2 base station, we can map ground data at a 0.1' level accuracy! If you have a project, where there isn't heavy tree canopies, and tall grass, then we should be able to use our drone to keep costs down vs. traditional methods of topographic surveying.We can produce a color ortho-photo, contours, and linework.
We surveyed an eroding sea bluff in Isla Vista using our High Definition Laser Scanner. This allowed us to safely measure the bluff erosion without scaling the bluff, causing damage to it, or worry about employee safety. The only issue was following the tides to get the survey done before the water level caught up to us!
Our LiDAR drone has a camera also, which means we can combine both photogrametric data and LiDAR data into one seamless topographic survey for your basemap needs! Call us for a free estimate. We firmly believe that only companies that concentrate their work in certain areas can provide truly exceptional work.

Working with Erick was nothing short of an amazing experience! He was always a reliable source of information to me. Taking the time to carefully explain me the difficult requisites of the City Building Department. I could always reach him when in need and he was always accessible, kind and understanding of my needs. My Architect was also very happy that I work with a professional like Gromatici Land Surveyor I recommend Gromatici very much!

Excellent surveyor that does thorough work and very quickly. Most surveyors quote a wait time of 2-3 weeks to get out there and then take 7-10 days to get the survey back. Eric was super responsive, I got our appointment scheduled in one week and he got the survey back to me in 2 days. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND and very reasonable.

Eric from Gromatici was quick, accurate and fun to work with. He analyzed some complex mapping issues for us and his definitive work helped resolve a bottleneck of divergent opinions. I would work with him again for any job requiring his services. It was a genuine pleasure. Scott Smigel, Attorney at Law

Fast and accurate service, estimate was exactly what was billed. We requested a Alta Survey for two properties with a very short turn around time and Eric was able to perform and deliver the promised service. We highly recommend Gromatici Land Surveying Services.
