Understand the Land. Design with Precision.

A topographic survey captures the elevation and shape of the land, showing natural and man-made features through contour lines. This data is essential for architects, engineers, and contractors who need accurate terrain models to inform grading, design, and infrastructure planning.

Topographic data is critical to avoid costly mistakes during grading and development. Contour maps reveal slopes, drainage paths, and elevation changes—helping teams build efficiently and within spec.

Site-Specific Elevation Models

Capture true site conditions before design begins—no surprises later.

Grading & Drainage Planning

Visualize natural flow and elevation change to design smarter water management systems.

Build Accuracy into the Foundation

Ensure design alignment with field conditions and reduce rework.

Compatible with CAD, Civil 3D & GIS

Seamless integration into your team's planning and design workflows.

Use Cases

Topographic maps help engineers design precise grading plans by showing elevation changes and slope direction. This ensures cut and fill work is optimized, reducing unnecessary earth movement and costs.

By understanding the terrain’s slope and natural water flow, planners can design effective drainage systems, retention basins, and runoff paths to prevent flooding or erosion issues.

Before design even begins, developers and architects use topographic data to assess buildability, access, utility routing, and environmental concerns. This reduces the risk of design changes later.

Meet agency requirements with high-resolution topographic data formatted for CAD, GIS, and regulatory submissions.

We provide detailed topographic surveys with contour lines at 1-foot or 0.5-meter intervals, along with both Digital Terrain Models (DTM) and Digital Surface Models (DSM) for comprehensive elevation analysis. All deliverables are formatted for seamless integration with your design and planning workflows, including SHP, DXF, and GeoTIFF files for CAD and GIS applications. For easy review and presentation, we also include annotated PDFs and KMZ overlays compatible with Google Earth.
