Scope of Services:

Topographical Survey

The Topographical Survey will display all features within the specified survey area. This includes, but is not limited to, building outlines, walls, kerbs, footpaths, changes in surface materials, and utility services, with manholes and inspection covers indicated with cover levels only. Any trees on the site with a trunk diameter greater than 150mm will be shown, including their trunk diameter, canopy size, and approximate height. All buildings will be depicted (showing the nearest exterior walls only), with levels noted for ridges and eaves, depending on lines-of-sight from the site and public highways. Spot levels will be taken every 10 meters and at any changes in gradient.

 
Underground Utility Survey
 
The Underground Utility Survey will map all utilities within the survey area. This will be done using a combination of Electromagnetic Location (EML) and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) methods. All utilities will be physically marked on the ground with spray paint, and this information will be transferred to the topographical survey. The final drawing will be delivered in AutoCAD format. All located utilities will be compared with existing statutory records for the site where available.
 

Desktop Record Search

A Desktop Record Search will be conducted to compile statutory record drawings for the site. This will include infrastructure owned by all utility companies within the site area, presented in a comprehensive pack.

"All buildings would be shown (nearest flank walls only) with levels to ridges & eaves, subject to lines-of-sight from site & the public highway"

Coordinate System

All levels and coordinates will be aligned with the OS Network using Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS).
 

Delivery / Output Details

The completed survey will be delivered digitally in 2D AutoCAD and PDF formats.
