We at Losamills enjoy what we do and we never let go of the past works that brought us into the limelight. These are just a few of the works done for the Survey Department of Ghana, Forestry Services Division, Ghana Armed Forces, Government of Ghana, Tullow Ghana Limited, West African Gas Pipeline (WAPCO), just to mention a few.

Ground control survey for Aerial Photography

The work involved the identification of fifty-nine points, from 29 aerial photographs, covering an area of 36 sq kilometres.GPS Surveying was then carried out, to determine the x, y and z information of the points to enable them to be used in the control of photography.

Globally Significant Biodiversity Areas

Nine forest sites averaging 35 km in perimeter per site were surveyed for the Forestry Commission. A demarcation of the boundaries of the forest reserves, which spanned two regions of Ghana.

Land Title Survey

A cadastral survey of over two thousand two hundred (2200) parcels of land. All parcels, roads and important features were surveyed and then a cadastral plan showing all the parcels and road network was prepared.

Land Title Survey of District 020

This involved the survey of all the parcels as well as details i.e. roads, rivers, utility poles etc within the section in that district. The final land Title layout was prepared and submitted to the Director of Survey, Head Office Accra.

Demarcation, Pillaring and Survey of Provenance (phase1)

Thirty eight provenance protected areas (PPA’s) were demarcated, pillared and surveyed for the Forest Services Division of the Forestry Commission in five regions of Ghana.

ECG Asset Mapping

The work involves mapping all ECG assets(meters, LV and HT poles, Pylons Line Networks, Transformers ,Switch Gears, Streetlights etc), locations of customers with associated attribute information(Meter type, numbers of phases, activity code) and building navigational geodatabase enriched with Landmark features such as roads, waterbodies, schools, hospitals, company names, telecom mast,etc.

PWALUGU MULTIPURPOSE DAM PROJECT

The work involved the demarcation, clearing, pillaring and coordination of 439 Type A pillars along the 124.82km boundary using static survey method in support of Pwalugu Multipurpose Dam Project (PMDP). In all 15 ground controls were strategically positioned to obtain up to 6km baseline distance from each established pillar and all submitted coordinates were all FIXED solution type with GDOP less than 4. In all 15 ground controls were strategically positioned to obtain up to 6km baseline distance from each established pillar and all submitted coordinates were all FIXED solution type with GDOP less than 4.Ghana National Grid in feet was the coordinate system used on this project.

OFFSHORE AND ONSHORE ENGINEERING SURVEY

Project involved working with a ROV crew to transport C-PINS between manifolds and permanent guide bases (PGB) at a depth of 1600m. The data collected allowed our surveyors to precisely measure the distance between these seabed structures as well as the heading, pitch and roll of the structures. We also collected precise differences in depth between the installations. The information helps operators to construct two jumpers in an onshore fabrication yard. Once the jumpers are fabricated the jumpers were transported offshore and lowered in place connecting the manifold to the PGB’s.

Demarcation, Pillaring and Survey of Provenance (phase2)

Five provenance protected areas (PPA’s) were demarcated, pillared and surveyed for the Forest Services Division of the Forestry Commission in three regions of Ghana.
