TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEY
Over Topographic surveying involves the production of maps which are true to scale. The maps are produced to accurately represent both the built and natural environment. The required detail of the topographic survey can vary from one project to another, we can adapt the survey to the clients individual specification. A network of control points is first established before observations are taken to the required topographical features. Most commonly a combination of Total Stations, GPS receivers and Digital Levels are used for data capture, the choice being largely dependent on site conditions: GPS is best for large open sites, even as total stations are better in built up areas or where there is a lot of tree cover. This collected data is processed in SCC surveying software to produce a Digital Terrain Model. The DTM allows contours, volumes and sections to be produced to the Client's specification.
