- Volumes of cut and fill
- Baseline before construction starts
How a topographic survey runs
- Agree the survey area, coordinate system, level datum, accuracy requirements and deliverables
- Establish control with GNSS
- Measure levels and features with GNSS and total stations
- Process the data into a terrain model and plan
- Issue the drawings and a survey report
What you receive
A topographic plan and contours in CAD, a digital terrain model, and a survey report, in the coordinate system and format you specify.
Instruments we use

Common questions
What is a topographic survey?
A topographic survey measures the shape of the ground and the features on it, such as buildings, roads and utilities, and presents them as a plan with levels and contours.
What do I need to send to get a topographic survey quote?
The site location and area, any existing drawings, the coordinate system and level datum you need, your timeline, and the format you need, for example CAD or DTM.
What is الرفع المساحي?
الرفع المساحي is the Arabic term for a land or topographic survey, the measurement of a site’s levels, boundaries and features so they can be drawn on a plan.
