Services
Topographic Surveys
Topographic surveys map natural and man-made features using advanced Sokkia Total Stations. Our reflectorless technology captures complex terrain with high accuracy, supporting planning, design, and development projects. Clients receive CAD-ready data tailored to their specifications.
Measured Building Surveys
Measured building surveys create detailed digital records of structures. Using reflectorless instruments, we capture hard-to-reach points to produce accurate floor plans, elevations, and sections. Data is delivered in CAD and digital formats for architectural or renovation purposes.
3D Scanning
3D scanning offers rapid, high-resolution data capture for complex structures. This technology creates immersive digital models ideal for heritage preservation, asset management, or construction verification. Clients benefit from faster turnaround times and minimally invasive surveying.
Elevations
Elevations provide detailed vertical views of buildings, tailored to client needs. Using reflectorless instruments, we produce full or outline elevations that integrate with measured surveys to form comprehensive architectural records for planning or restoration projects.
Monitoring
Monitoring services track structural movements or deformations over time. Our precise instruments detect subtle changes in buildings, bridges, or infrastructure, providing critical data for safety assessments, maintenance planning, or construction impact analysis.
