SURVEY LEADERSHIP TEAM
CHARTER
 
 
AUTHORITY
 
The Survey Leadership Team (SLT) has been in existence since 2001, but was reestablished under the PDLT Operational Notice PD-01, dated January 1, 2005. The chair of this team will report issues up to the Technical Leadership Team (TLT) when necessary.
 
 
MISSION
 
The mission of the ODOT Survey Leadership Team is to assure quality and provide consistent, effective and efficient services in the discipline of land surveying in all related matters of concern to the Department through organization, standardization, training, equipping and supervision of survey personnel using resources within and from outside the Department, striving to use the most appropriate and prudent methods, and balancing creative and visionary risks against application of proven and reliable techniques.
 
 
TEAM PURPOSE
  • Provide guidance on the establishment of Department policies and procedures related to the Surveying Program including all necessary surveying activities involved in project delivery. 
  • Facilitate communication and collaboration between regional technical centers and Technical Services’ Geometronics Unit.
  • Provide an atmosphere and opportunity for collaborative problem-solving and idea-sharing.
  • Assess the effectiveness of the Surveying Program and identify areas for improvement. 
  • Prioritize recommendations and include an annual work plan to track and report on the progress of the Geometronics Unit.
  • Promote effective and efficient surveying of ODOT staff and their consultants.
  • Provide an opportunity for statewide survey resource leveling.
  • Provide uniformity in survey staff positions.
  • Identify needs and promote training.
  • Develop long-term goals for survey automation and a strategic plan for surveyors.

GUESTS
 
Guests to the meeting may include representatives from any other ODOT discipline that may be affected by surveying, photogrammetry, or right of way engineering. Representatives from outside the agency such as county surveyors and consultants may also be invited.
 
 
MEETINGS
 
The SLT will meet once a month. Meetings will be from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The meetings will generally be held in Salem at the Geometronics office, but will also be rotated to each of the regions once a year. 
 
 
SUBCOMMITTEES
 
A subcommittee of the SLT will be the Survey Technical Advisory Committee (STAC). This "task specific" committee will not have any permanent members and will not meet routinely, but will be invoked whenever a technical issue needs to be worked outside of SLT. One of the SLT members will chair this temporary committee and the membership determined based on the issue. The temporary chair of STAC will pick members for the task based on their expertise on that subject.
