Services
Topographical Surveys
We conduct detailed topographical surveys using advanced equipment to create accurate terrain models. Our services support construction and infrastructure projects by providing precise elevation data and site features. With nationwide coverage, we deliver rapid turnaround times while maintaining strict quality standards for both small and large-scale developments.
3D Laser Scanning
Our 3D laser scanning services produce highly detailed building and environmental models. Using LiDAR technology, we capture precise measurements for structural analysis and heritage preservation. The data supports BIM integration and asset management, with processing completed in-house to ensure accuracy and timely delivery for complex engineering projects.
Hydrographic Surveys
We perform hydrographic surveys for coastal monitoring and river environments, meeting Environment Agency specifications. Our expertise includes bathymetric mapping and shoreline analysis using specialist equipment. These surveys support flood risk assessment, dredging operations, and marine infrastructure projects across the UK's coastal and inland waterways.
Verified Views
Our verified views service creates accurate visualisations for planning applications using Total Station and GPS technology. Working with 3D visualisation partners, we produce precise montages that follow Landscape Institute guidelines. This includes architectural photography to support development proposals and environmental impact assessments.
Calibration Services
We offer GNSS calibration services using a fixed six-instrument setup with long static observations. Our calibration site ensures equipment accuracy for geodetic control networks. This service supports photogrammetry, LiDAR operations, and large infrastructure projects requiring precise measurement systems across construction and mapping applications.
