Boundary Surveys
Our boundary surveys establish precise property lines using historical records and modern GPS technology. Licensed surveyors analyze legal documents and conduct field measurements to resolve disputes and support real estate transactions. Clients receive detailed AutoCAD drawings for regulatory compliance and construction planning.
Topographic Surveys
We create detailed topographic maps showing natural and man-made features for engineering and development projects. Our surveys capture elevation data, vegetation, and infrastructure to support site planning and drainage analysis. Field crews use robotic total stations and GPS systems for high accuracy.
Construction Stake-Out
Our construction stake-out services ensure accurate implementation of engineering plans through precise field markings. Surveyors establish reference points for foundations, utilities, and roadways using digital data from design documents. This service maintains alignment and grading specifications during project execution.
Highway Design Surveys
We provide comprehensive surveys for highway and roadway projects including alignment, right-of-way, and drainage assessments. Our data supports pavement design and traffic flow analysis. Surveys comply with NYSDOT standards for municipal and state transportation infrastructure projects.
