Surveying in Okaloosa County

Okaloosa County is home to Eglin Air Force Base, the largest Air Force installation in the Western Hemisphere at over 460,000 acres. The base's vast reservation creates restricted airspace zones that impact drone surveying operations and generates specialized military construction survey requirements.

Destin and Fort Walton Beach on the Gulf Coast drive high-end waterfront survey demand, with the Destin Harbor and Choctawhatchee Bay creating complex coastal and bayfront boundary situations.

Crestview, the county seat in the northern portion, sits at one of the highest elevations in Florida (over 235 feet) and is experiencing rapid suburban growth, creating demand for subdivision platting and topographic surveys on hilly terrain unusual for the state.
