What Surveying Services Does Planet Surveying Provide?

We offer a wide range of surveying services to meet the specific needs of your project:

• Topographical Surveys: Detailed mapping of land contours and features.

• Measured Building Surveys: Accurate drawings of existing buildings and structures.

• Land Surveys: Comprehensive assessments of land areas for potential development.

• Setting Out Surveys: Precise marking of construction sites based on design plans.

• Utility Surveys: Identification and mapping of underground utilities.

• Drone Surveys: Aerial surveys using drones for large or difficult-to-access sites.

• GPR Surveys: Ground Penetrating Radar surveys to detect sub-surface anomalies.

When Is Land Surveying Needed?

Land surveying is essential at various stages of a project, from initial planning to final construction, to provide precise land measurements and data. During the site assessment phase, surveys identify topographical features and existing infrastructure using tools like total stations and GPS equipment.

For obtaining planning permissions, we generate accurate maps and reports that illustrate land elevations, slope grades, and drainage systems. Surveys also align construction work with architectural designs, employing methods such as laser scanning for detailed 3D modelling.

Additionally, land surveying plays a role in resolving boundary disputes by using cadastral surveys that define legal boundaries marked on the land. Compliance with safety regulations often requires geodetic surveying to measure the exact positions of structures relative to a predefined coordinate system.

Working with Planet Surveying ensures adherence to relevant standards, providing reliability for property developers, architects, and legal professionals. For accurate survey data you can rely on, reach out to Planet Surveying today.
