Topographical Surveys

Topographical Survey Services for Every Development Need

A topographical survey is the initial survey for almost any development project. As the foundation of all future design and construction, it provides all the information required for the design of subdivision boundaries, drainage (waste & storm water), services (power, water, telephone) roads and/or driveways, houses, and pretty much anything else you can think of.

Using advanced tools like drone photography and 360-degree imaging, we capture every critical detail, from retaining walls to significant trees and utilities, ensuring your project starts with accurate and reliable data.

Topographical surveys typically include the following information:

  • All site boundary dimensions
  • Easements, covenants, and encumbrances
  • Levels on boundaries and across a site
  • Contours at 0.5m intervals
  • Buildings (including floor, roof, gutter, and ridge levels)
  • Driveway & other paved areas
  • Retaining walls (position and heights)
  • Significant trees with heights and driplines
  • Public & private drainage/power/water/telephone
  • 360-degree and drone photos

Our topographical surveys can be used for:

  • Land Development and Subdivisions
  • Construction Planning
  • Infrastructure & Utility Installation
  • Environmental & Landscaping Projects
  • Renovations & Extensions
