Informational
Before you start
Land surveying provides a measurable reference of the site and its existing features. A survey can record boundaries, distances, elevations, slopes, buildings and other information later used for design or construction staking.
The quality of the initial information affects many later decisions. Total stations, GNSS equipment, levels, drones and other technologies may be used depending on the accuracy and scope required for the work.
Points to evaluate
This category explains the purpose of topographic surveys and why their scope should be established before beginning design, earthworks or construction activities.
