Our Resources

Our broader capabilities centre around a general civil engineering consulting practise,  with municipal engineering,  structural engineering,  services infrastructure engineering,  traffic engineering,  engineering surveying and land development expertise.

We have a complete suite of licensed software including BricsCAD,  Twinmotion,  SpaceGass,  Structural Toolkit,  Terramodel,  Geocomp,  MUSIC,  Pix 4D,  DJI Go4,  Capture and Ground Station Pro,  in addition to a comprehensive survey capability. 

Our survey capability includes a TS15 robotic station and also a TC1100 total station survey instrument,  a laser and two automatic levels,  2 handheld Leica lasers (Disto') and a TruPulse laser,  several digital cameras,  measuring wheels and various other items of minor survey equipment.

The Leica Viva TS15 has the following capabilities:

• 'Reflector less' measurements over distances up to 400m

• Robotic operation, having a true one man survey capability

• 'Power search' remote prism find capability

• High speed measurement capability

• Full colour screen, infield editing capability

In addition,  GMR has a Leica GS14 GPS (unlimited net rover) system and Viva controller.  This one-man station GPS capability has significantly enhanced our survey datum control processes. 

We also operate 4 x UAV’s unmanned aerial vehicles (drones).  This enables general survey for difficult or inaccessible areas.  Providing us with enhanced aerial survey,  high resolution photographic (as stills or video format) and terrain modelling capabilities.  Our investment in this new technology has been significant,  resulting in the purchase of 4 x DJI UAV’s,  each with extended flight time capability. 
Please visit our Drone Footage page for further information and examples.

This new equipment together with 4 vehicles,  2 of which have 4WD capabilities,  ensures GMR continues to provide more options for clients,  including time and cost saving opportunities,  whilst delivering state of the art solutions.

Our team is supported by an extensive library of engineering references including a comprehensive selection of current Australian Standards,  a good range of current Victorian and NSW legislation,  a number of Planning Schemes,  a range of other relevant AUSTROAD’s,  VicRoads,  RTA,  VRIOG’s,  WSA’s and other technical references.  Our library also includes a broad database of digital mapping and we maintain a current commercial Nearmap aerial image license. 

Our resources extend to and include a secure PC network which is backed up daily onsite,  and offsite weekly and monthly.  The network is externally accessible via VPN and our emails are also remotely accessible.   We also maintain an excellent,  secure,  catalogued hard copy,  compactus based file management system and retain historic records.
