Services
Property Survey
A property survey confirms boundary lines to prevent disputes and ensure legal compliance. Ideal for homeowners planning improvements like fences or additions. Our surveys protect property rights by clearly defining ownership limits using precise measurements and historical records.
Topographic Survey
This survey maps elevations, contours, and natural features to support site design or development. Used for erosion control plans and subdivision maps, it provides critical data for engineers and architects. Our drones enhance accuracy and efficiency in complex terrains.
ALTA/ACSM Survey
An ALTA/ACSM survey meets strict standards for commercial property transactions. It identifies encroachments, easements, and legal boundaries, satisfying lender requirements. We complete these surveys promptly to facilitate timely real estate closings and minimize delays.
Elevation Certificates
Elevation certificates determine flood zone status and insurance requirements. We file all necessary paperwork to help clients avoid unnecessary flood insurance costs. Our surveys comply with FEMA guidelines and include detailed topographic data for accurate risk assessment.
LiDAR & Photogrammetry
Using drones, LiDAR, and photogrammetry, we capture high-resolution data for large or complex sites. This technology accelerates data collection for ALTA surveys, topographic mapping, and construction planning. It reduces field time while maintaining exceptional accuracy for engineering and real estate projects.
