What we map

See how the range sits on the property.

Different people use different names for the downrange area. We start with the firing layout, property, terrain, weapons, ammunition, and the question you need the map to answer.

Core service

Safety fan and SDZ mapping

For outdoor ranges that need to show the live-fire area against the terrain, property lines, roads, buildings, and other land around the range. The map can help with a permit, range change, different ammunition, or a larger project.

  • Firing points, target lines and limits of fire
  • Weapons and ammunition supplied by the owner
  • Safety fan, SDZ and overlapping range areas
  • Terrain, property information, roads and buildings
  • Sources, open questions and map revisions

What is around the range

Behind the berm and beyond the target line

Put the range layout and the property around it on one map before the owner or project team makes the next decision.

  • Backstops, impact berms, side berms and baffles
  • Land behind the backstop
  • Roads, trails, buildings, water and neighboring property
  • Available terrain, parcel and owner-supplied records
  • Missing information that still needs an answer

Shotgun ranges

Shotfall zone mapping

Map the expected shotgun-use area and surrounding site before changing a trap, skeet or other shotgun facility.

  • Firing stations and field orientation
  • Owner-provided ammunition and operating basis
  • Shot-fall or shot-outfall footprint
  • Property limits, terrain, water and nearby land uses
  • Clear planning-map limitations and source record

Supporting work

Keep the map connected to the project.

Mapping is the core. When it fits the same project, we can also organize the records needed for a grant, capital project or annual handoff.

Grant and project records

Application exhibits, progress evidence, reimbursement files, changes and closeout records.

See grant and project support

Annual range records

Owner-supplied maintenance, inspection, public-use and long-term award records kept in one current file.

See annual records support
