B.3.3 Engineering Support

All request for research and production products, (maps and or detailed information on utilities and infrastructure) will be made in writing using supplied request form, by e-mail or via request page of the Fort Carson DPW Map Store web page.

Requests for detailed information must be supported by a DPW or US Army Corps of Engineer's project number or construction solicitation document.  These requests must show a justifiable need for the information and how it relates to the project.  Detailed maps and production products are official correspondence and will not be shared with any organization not related to the specific project.

All project drawings will conform to Spatial Data Standards for Facilities Infrastructure and Engineering, SDSFIE (formerly known at Tri-Service Spatial Data Standards) or A/E/C CADD Standards.  These can be found HERE for GIS, or HERE for CADD.

All primary projects will provide record drawings and the as-built drawings will conform to the tri-service standards and conventions and be provided in both paper and electronic (i.e. Micro-station) format.

All projects must provide completed record drawings before being considered finished.

Repair/alterations to any exterior utility that changes system configuration or location will be reported within 72 hours via red line or electronic media. GPS support from this office may be requested to establish accurate survey locations.
(719) 526-9218/9217

The submittal register shall include requirements for record drawings (As-Built) be submitted prior to final project close-out.

The Engineering Support Branch will be consulted for any questions relating to procedure. (719) 526-9218/9217.

All  CADD drawings will be in the same projection and units as Fort Carson GIS and the basic information maps.   A Microstation seed file will be provided upon request by the Fort Carson, DPW, GIS Map Room.

In the interest of safety and the accuracy of the Utility Maps, the following requirements apply:

  • Utilities redlines must be submitted prior to the activation of that utility.  This is to include service and distribution systems. Interim redline drawings with accurate measurements are required every 30 days for any project or phase of a project, which will exceed 30 days.

  • Complete As-Built drawings will be submitted per contracted.
