General

Air Maps, Inc. was founded in 1968 for the purpose of providing photogrammetric services to individuals, private firms, and governmental organizations.  In 1973 consulting civil engineering and surveying services were added and in 1981 the name was changed to AMI Engineering, Inc.

AMI is currently located in a building in west Little Rock which was constructed in 1993 for the company at 201 Markham Center Drive.  This building has ample space for engineering, surveying and aerial mapping personnel to complete their tasks for clients.  These facilities, along with the skills and experience of its employees, will allow AMI to be able to assist you in any engineering, surveying, or mapping needs you may have. 

Historically, AMI’s staff has been able to meet time schedules, budgets and construction observation requirements to protect the client's interest while directing projects to their successful conclusion. AMI also provides incentives for its staff to enhance their skills and further their education by participating in continuing education opportunities, such as workshops, training courses, etc.
