Pioneering 3D

Tuck pioneered the process of merging three-dimensional vector files containing the design data, with a three-dimensional digital ortho, which indicates the contours of the land. These ortho images are being used by several state departments of transportation for planning, functional maps, public hearings, and actual design. The images created by Tuck Engineering allow residents to see exactly where the alignment of right-of-ways and new highways will affect their properties. Says Bobby Tuck, founder and president, "It has stirred up more interest in our services than anything we've done in the last five years."
