Municipalities have ownership rights over most highways within their boundaries. The B.C. government continues to have ownership of and jurisdiction over arterial (provincial) highways that are located in municipalities, and has a right of resumption of municipally-owned highways for specified purposes.

The Community Charter defines highways to include streets, roads, lanes, bridges, viaducts and any other way open to public use, other than private rights of way on private property. That includes, for example, sidewalks.

The property of most highways in a municipality is vested in (belongs to) a municipality, subject to the common law right of public passage (right to use the property as a highway). In addition, the municipality has a right of possession of some highways that it does not own, giving it the authority to maintain those roads. The B.C. government has ownership of and jurisdiction over most roads in non-municipal (rural) areas – for example, those roads in regional district electoral areas.

Secure Remote Offshore Positioning & BMS/TMS Survey Services

A secure, Internet-enabled offshore positioning solution integrating BMS/TMS survey systems, high-speed Wi-Fi communications, encrypted VPN connectivity, and remote survey displays to enable real-time positioning, monitoring, navigation support, and remote survey operations between offshore vessels, barges, tugs, and onshore survey support centres.

Ogeo Survey Sdn. Bhd. is honoured to strengthen its collaboration with Madeei Pacific Ltd., the QPS Official Partner for Japan, through a valuable technical exchange aimed at advancing the application of Qinsy in offshore surveying and positioning.

This collaboration provides an excellent platform for both organisations to share knowledge, technical expertise, and operational experience in various offshore survey applications, including ROV underwater positioning, remote anchor handling positioning, and integrated marine navigation solutions.

A key area of collaboration focuses on the development of next-generation remote anchor handling positioning, utilising high-speed, high-reliability wireless communication together with internet-based connectivity capable of supporting real-time operations even in the middle of the ocean. These technologies enable survey teams, vessels, and onshore support personnel to remain seamlessly connected, allowing remote monitoring, decision-making, and positioning support with greater efficiency and flexibility.

By integrating advanced communication systems with modern survey software, both companies are working together to transform conventional offshore survey operations into smarter, more connected, and technology-driven workflows. This initiative represents another step towards the adoption of digital solutions, automation, and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to improve operational performance, positioning accuracy, safety, and collaboration across offshore projects.

Ogeo Survey Sdn. Bhd. sincerely appreciates the opportunity to collaborate with Madeei Pacific Ltd. and looks forward to further strengthening this partnership in support of continuous innovation within the offshore surveying industry. Together, we remain committed to embracing cutting-edge technologies and shaping the future of offshore surveying and positioning through digital transformation and intelligent solutions.
