Project Intake

Start your SDZ map.

This is the same intake every project runs through, defense clients included. It takes about 20 minutes and covers the weapon, ammunition, firing position, target, and terrain inputs the model needs. Once it's in: receipt acknowledged within one business day, written scope and fixed-price quote within two. Skip anything you don't know and we'll sort it out in one consolidated follow-up email, not endless back and forth.

Fields marked * are required. Everything else, skip what you don't know and we'll sort it in one follow-up.

01 · Company & point of contact

02 · Weapon system & ammunition

We keep ballistic data for most DoD munitions and the common civilian inventory. A round designation or DODIC is enough; custom or frangible loads need manufacturer, weight, and velocity.

03 · Firing position(s) & coordinates

Coordinates drive the model. Phone method: open Google Maps, press and hold on the firing position until a pin drops, copy the decimal coordinates at the top (34.12345, -97.65432). A shared Maps link works too.

04 · Targets

Type, material, and elevation matter. Stray rounds, penetrations, and misses each behave differently depending on what's downrange.

05 · Property, distances & terrain

06 · Existing documentation

If a prior SDZ exists, note the producer and year in the notes below. Existing work gets built on, not billed twice.

07 · Deliverables

Every project includes the GIS-built SDZ map on real terrain, a 36×24 print-ready PDF, and a one-page executive summary. Optional add-ons below are priced line by line on the written scope.

08 · Timeline & notes

Range maps, surveys, or spec sheets to attach? Email them to seth@rangeoperations.com after submitting and they'll be matched to your intake.
