We’re pleased to welcome Jeff Cooner to Atwell as the senior director of surveying for the Southeast Real Estate & Land Development team. Located in our Bonita Springs office, Jeff will focus on managing the team’s growth, quality assurance, and client care in the southeastern US. Jeff brings a wealth of knowledge with more than four decades of experience including large, complex land acquisitions and land management projects such as the acquisition of US Sugar agricultural land holdings by the South Florida Water Management District and lands of the Babcock Ranch by the State of Florida.  Jeff has extensive experience with subdivision platting, condominium platting, construction surveying, and the establishment of road rights-of-way.

He is often called upon by the public and private sectors to consult on surveying and mapping projects with challenging deadlines or technical requirements. It is common for Jeff to include technologies utilizing sensors that perform terrestrial laser scanning, mobile mapping, aerial surveys, bathymetric surveys, and subsurface utility designation and location.  His expertise in water boundaries, riparian rights, and the historical limits of sovereignty submerged lands is sought out by both public and private clients. Jeff served on the  (BPSM) for almost ten years and provided input on the structure of the current Standard of Practice for Florida surveyors and mappers.
