EXPERIENCE

Mr. Dardis has nearly 20 years of experience in surveying tasks, including boundary and topographic surveys, subdivision surveys and platting, right-of-way mapping, legal description preparation, and computer utilization including CAICE software, Electronic Field Book, Microstation, SKI GPS software, and other software applications.

He spent seven years in the Florida D.O.T. District Two Surveying and Mapping Department, and was closely involved in the early development, and continued improvement of both the Electronic Field Book, and CAICE software packages. While with the Department, Mr. Dardis served on the Statewide Technical Advisory Committee (including one year as Chairman), and the Statewide GPS standards Committee. He was responsible for coordination, technical support, and processing of all in-house design, control, and GPS survey projects in District Two. He was also responsible for providing technical support for the Department's consultants, and the review and maintenance of all consultant survey data submittals.

Before Mr. Dardis joined the F.D.O.T., he worked in the private sector on various other types of survey projects such as boundary and topographic surveys, sectional retracement, and mortgage surveys including the preparation of subdivision plats and legal descriptions. His experience in the private sector is extensive in both the field and the office.

The following is a brief list of projects in which Mr. Dardis has been responsible for coordinating and processing all in-house surveys, including the computation of alignment, right-of-way lines, section lines, and subdivision lines, and/or the review of consultant submittals of electronic data for correctness and conformity to district standards:
