This is like 8 hours of investigation at most. Send some beltway lanyard out there with their phone and a fielding app, then send those points of to your GIS guy who can draft up a time series map in an hour at most.

I make much more complicated maps in under an hour so the time.

But I'm sure they billed like 200 hours, that's the grift

Yeah, but that's billing. Billing is always crazy and I would do the same lol. It's just not a lot of work is all
