Orlando’s Gatorland’s “Stompin-Gator-Off-Road-Adventure”

Southeastern Surveying and Mapping Corporation is proud to have been an integral part in the development of Orlando’s Gatorland’s “Stompin-Gator-Off-Road-Adventure” ride. As the Park’s surveyor we were able to provide surveys for the Park to expand into the far reaches of its property in South Orlando with wetland delineation surveys for regulatory approval and the initial surveys to lay out the paths for the development of the adventure ride. We feel honored to be able to serve one of Florida’s original theme parks with our combined services as they are called for.
