Terrain Surveys are a land surveys practise offering a range of measured survey services, keeping up to date with current demands of both 2D and 3D information. As a land surveyor we not only provide you with services related to land and site development, but also provide highly accurate measured survey information of buildings and structures. With today's growing requirement for 3D data, Terrain Surveys can also provide you with 3D models and pointcloud datasets. A thorough land survey is required whatever the size of your project, with accurate well presented survey information vital for the design and planning processes.

Topographical surveys or land surveys are detailed accurate plan drawings identifying both natural and man-made features within a specified area. The plan will show all features such as buildings, boundaries, services covers and site levels. Normally presented digitally in CAD format, we are also able to provide scaled paper copies. There are many reasons why topographical surveys will be required, but typically they are used by architects, planners and engineers for the design and planning stages of a project.
