Southeastern Reprographics, Inc. (SRI) was founded in February 1979 specifically to provide mapping and field inventory services to the electric, gas, and water utility industries. Our name was derived from the methods employed in that era for map creation, which generally used photographic and cartographic processes. Since that time the technology used in mapping has changed considerably. In 1985, SRI saw the industry trend moving toward automation, and became actively involved in the digital preparation of utility maps. SRI was one of the first companies in the United States to provide digital mapping services to clients, and has stayed abreast of this ever-changing technology in order to produce the highest quality maps available.
