Abstract:The sinkhole located in Assumption Parish, Louisiana, threatens the stability of Highway 70, a state maintained route. In order to
mitigate the potential damaging eff ects of the sinkhole on this infrastructure, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and
Development (DOTD) has requested accurate and precise measurements of control points along the aff ected portion of the highway.
The Center for GeoInformatics (C4G) at Louisiana State University (LSU) was contracted to measure and collect horizontal and
vertical positions at various locations along the highway using Global Positioning Systems (GPS) enhanced by a real-time network
(RTN) of continuously operating reference stations (CORS) maintained by C4G.
