Survey Services

01

Boundary & Land Title

ALTA / NSPS

A boundary survey formally defines the boundaries of a property, focusing primarily on identifying the corners of a parcel of land. Clients commission boundary surveys before buying, dividing, improving, or building on land. After completion, the land surveyor creates a certified drawing reflecting all findings.

Topographic Surveys

Terrain Mapping

A topographic survey identifies and measures the exact locations, shapes, arrangements, and features of all natural and man-made elements on a specified land surface. It collects data on land contours and terrain elevation — required by engineers, architects, local governments, and contractors for accurate visualization of development work.

Contour and elevation mapping
Natural & manmade feature identification
Ground, aerial, and underground surveys
Data for engineering and design

03

Pipeline / Route / Right-of-Way

Infrastructure

A route or pipeline survey is a data collection operation to gather information about the proposed route of a roadway, utility pipe, or railway. Surveyors identify the most cost-effective route to follow. An engineer uses the collected data to plan the route in detail and create specifications for work crews.

Pipeline alignment surveys
Right-of-way documentation
Municipal infrastructure projects

04

Construction Staking

Residential & Commercial

Construction staking positions stakes in the ground to map out proposed improvements with the highest possible accuracy against project blueprints. Once the surveying team reviews approved project plans, they lay out stakes identifying exact locations and dimensions of all planned improvements — including building walls, drainage flow, and concrete features.

Building footprint staking
Drainage and utility layout
Curbs, sidewalks, and driveways

05

Volumetric Surveys

Earthworks & Materials

Volumetric surveying is particularly useful for construction projects. Architects and engineers use volumetric surveys to calculate the volume and value of earthworks, stockpiles, and other materials. Like a surface-level topographical survey, the procedures pay close attention to levels and break lines — giving a fuller picture of volumes including surface and subsurface strata.

Earthwork volume calculations
Stockpile measurement
Cut and fill analysis
Material value assessment

06

As-Built Surveys

Post-Construction

An As-Built Survey is conducted and shown on a drawing prepared and sealed by a Registered Surveyor and/or Engineer, indicating actual dimensions, elevations, and locations of structures and their components, underground utilities, roads, swales, ditches, detention/retention facilities, sewers, BMPs, or other infrastructure after construction is complete.

Post-construction verification
As-built drawing preparation
Underground utility documentation
Infrastructure certification

07

Subdivision Surveys

Land Development

Subdivision survey (commonly referred to as subdivision platting) is the process of splitting a tract of land into smaller parcels. It shows monumentation and survey data on a map in conformance with local subdivision ordinance, designating residential and commercial lots, roads (rights-of-way), parkland dedication, drainage and utility easements, and how city services will be extended to each lot.
