A topographic survey measures and represents the terrain and its natural and man-made features on a precise plan. It is the foundation of every urban, agricultural, or infrastructure study.
Work stages
- Initial reconnaissance: site visit and control points.
- Field measurement: centimeter-grade GPS and total stations.
- Office processing: data processing with specialized software.
- Plan production: a topographic plan with contour lines.
Deliverables
- Digital topographic plan (DWG/PDF)
- Coordinates table
- Detailed technical report
