What is a Topographic Survey?
A Topographic Survey provides crucial data that enables informed decision-making and future planning. They are essential for all kinds of industries and professionals who may be involved in the development of your site, for example, architects, planners, and civil engineers. Depending on the purpose and requirements of your unique situation, our highly experienced property surveyor will be looking at boundary lines, structures on the land, the location of trees and vegetation, and ground heights, surfacing, and contours. This survey can also be utilized to legally define the boundaries of your property.
The Benefits
The clarity of mapping that a Topographic Survey will provide offers innumerable benefits. The information given will prove to be vital for many professionals working on your site, as it can allow the prediction of potential issues, such as the risk of flooding that may change your construction plans. By finding out in advance about the details of your land, you can avoid those costly mistakes that could be potentially disastrous! Often this information will lead to the design of new drainage systems, repositioned boundary lines, and legally defined/ confirmed boundary lines.
