Services
ALTA Surveys
Our ALTA/NSPS surveys meet national standards for commercial property transactions. We combine GPS control with detailed title research to produce accurate boundary documentation for title insurance purposes. Our surveys include easements, encroachments, and zoning compliance verification. Clients receive digital deliverables compatible with CAD and GIS systems.
Drone Surveys
Using RTK-equipped drones, we create high-accuracy topographic maps and orthophotos. Our drone surveys reduce costs by 40-60% compared to traditional methods while maintaining 0.1' precision. Ideal for vineyards, farms, and large construction sites, our services include contour mapping and 3D modeling for site planning and grading analysis.
Elevation Certificates
We provide FEMA-compliant elevation certificates for flood insurance requirements. Our surveys determine base flood elevations and building elevations to qualify properties for preferred insurance rates. We also offer LOMA applications and flood zone verification services for coastal and inland properties.
Topographic Mapping
Our topographic surveys document natural and man-made features with precise elevation data. Using both ground-based and drone LiDAR, we create detailed site plans for construction, grading, and drainage projects. Deliverables include contour maps, digital terrain models, and cross-sectional analysis for engineering applications.
Land Development Surveys
We support residential and commercial development through tentative/final maps, lot line adjustments, and parcel mapping. Our services include boundary resolution, utility staking, and compliance with local planning regulations. We coordinate with agencies to ensure smooth project approval and construction phases.
