Topographical surveys are a priceless tool in any construction or engineer’s arsenal. Not only do topographical surveys show the lay of the land in detail, but they also cover man-made items and other potential naturally occurring limitations to your projected concept. When you get a topographical survey, this will also aid your company and other workers in the building process so that everyone can steer clear of problem areas to avoid both injuries and unstable building components.
Elevation and other land features are often absent from other maps and drawings, so your topographical survey will help you stay ahead of any potential complications by planning and working with—instead of against—the land. A combination of GPS (global positioning system) and electronic distance measurement (EDM) form the data that can then be leveraged during the construction project.
