Andrew Lonnie Sikes, PE, RPLS began his engineering and surveying career upon completing graduate school at Texas A&M University. Upon graduation he joined the US Department of Commerce, National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in 1969. Mr. Sikes rose to the rank of Lieutenant (03) in the Officer Corps of NOAA during his four year term. Mr. Sikes recognized an opportunity to start his own business shortly after earning his professional engineering registration.
In 1977, Mr. Sikes started Andrew Lonnie Sikes, Inc. (ALS, Inc.) offering a broad range of surveying and engineering services including geographic information systems (GIS) projects and hydrographic, global positioning systems (GPS) and aerial surveys. From the start, ALS, Inc. has always been known for embracing new technologies. The first time Mr. Sikes gained professional experience with aerial mapping in 1971, he recognized a versatile technology that could deliver efficient survey options.
In 1992, ALS, Inc. began offering aerial mapping, a division run by Benoit Blouin, RPLS.

Aerial mapping is the science of making measurements from stereo photography.
The basic principles of stereo imaging were known as early as the 15th century.
ALS, Inc. has been in the aerial mapping business since 1992 and employs the latest technology available.
ALS, Inc. has created contour maps of thousands of acres and hundreds of miles of Texas highways.
Our final products have been designed for scales plotting at as large as 1"=30' and as small as 1"=1000'.
Clients regularly request orthometrically corrected images to accompany the detailed mapping.
