They do it to us. I do it to them.
Especially if I am in the engineering phase I place tickets for geotech soil
sampling...
Generally the paint and flags last a few weeks, so go put paint back on the
old paint.
Not sure how we organize photos. Dates from meta data would get you most of
the way there.

Subject: [AFMUG] Tracking UG locate requests
For those of you with underground plant, how do you keep track of your
Locate requests? In our area, lots of micro 5G cells are being
installed, so we have multiple locate requests for the same area. First
the City replaces the utility pole, then the Electrician bores in a
power feed, then one or more telcos bore fiber to the pole, this process
takes 2-3 months. Around here at least, they are very lax about their
actual start date. May get a locate request in on Tuesday saying boring
work starts on Thursday, then a week later a re-mark request comes in,
then a week after that another re-mark request before they actually do
the job. Each one of these requests generates its own locate ticket.
It's easier to just pull the pictures to re-mark instead of hooking the
locator back up, since they are usually for about 40'-60' worth of
locating through their work area. How do you keep track of the pictures
of different locates? The locate Ticket number is useless try to find
it later. File them by fiber path number, handhole number, GPS Coordinates?
