Bridgend County Borough Council commissioned Exegesis to capture and survey a network of paths over the Kenfig Burrows Nature Reserve.
When the Thames Path National Trail Association took over management of the section of the Thames Path through London, they approaches exegesis to carry out a full condition survey of this section of the Thames Path.
This survey of around 140km of public rights of way in Wrexham marks the first use of our new CAMS Mobile solution on a large structured survey.
Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority had a new footpath dedicated by a landowner. ExeGesIS were asked to capture the precise line of the path on the ground using GPS to add the route to their digital Definitive Map, held in their CAMS application.
Early in 2014 exeGesIS completed a base line survey of the 200 km long South Downs Way. We provided a website for online entry of condition survey information, which was uploaded directly to our CAMS software for analysis and reporting. National Park Officers were also able to assign additional tasks to volunteers through the website.
The Kintyre Way is a long-distance trail around the Kintyre Peninsula in Scotland, managed by a partnership of Argyll & Bute Council and The Long and Winding Way organisation. In 2013, exeGesIS assisted in setting up the management system for the trail, providing training to the trail managers and a full baseline survey of the trail.
Working with Central Bedfordshire Council, exeGesIS developed a mobile solution for data collection in the field. This presented us with a number of technical challenges, including how to synchronise with CAMS data and how to work "offline" when there is no mobile or wifi signal. The result has been a highly robust and flexible application.
In early 2014, exeGesIS worked with Natural England on a baseline survey of the 330 km long Pennine Bridleway, the only National Trail designed primarily for use by horse riders. This work involved developing the survey methodology, provision of survey equipment and technical support, and analysis of the data collected on the survey.
The South Downs National Park Authority asked exeGesIS to carry out a complete baseline survey of the Serpent Trail and the South Downs Way, totalling nearly 300 km. exeGesIS worked with the Authority to develop the methodology for the survey, and then completed all setup, fieldwork, data analysis and reporting in just eight weeks.
Bristol City Council held a considerable amount of data relating to the assets on their public rights of way network, but some of this information was out of date. exeGesIS were asked to resurvey the network, preserving what existing information was still relevant, and updating where appropriate.
