Services
Construction Surveying
Our construction surveying services provide precise measurements and data for project planning and execution. Using Trimble S7 robotic total stations and GNSS systems, we ensure accurate layout and monitoring throughout all construction phases. Our team delivers detailed topographic maps and boundary surveys to support infrastructure development and building projects.
Drone Aerial Mapping
We utilize DJI Phantom 4 Pro drones for high-resolution aerial mapping and 3D modeling. FAA-certified pilots capture detailed orthophotos and elevation data for land development, pipeline monitoring, and disaster site analysis. This technology enables efficient data collection over large or challenging terrain areas.
3D Spatial Information
Our Trimble SX10 3D laser scanner creates precise digital models of physical environments. This technology supports architectural documentation, crash scene reconstruction, and industrial facility mapping. We deliver accurate point cloud data for engineering analysis and virtual simulations across various industries.
GPS Positioning Services
We provide high-accuracy GPS positioning for control networks and geodetic applications. Our services include National Geodetic Survey control establishment and real-time positioning using Trimble VRS technology. These solutions support large-scale infrastructure projects and boundary determination with millimeter-level precision.
Topography Land Surveying
Our topographic surveys create detailed elevation models of land surfaces. Using digital levels and advanced data collection systems, we map natural and man-made features for site planning, drainage analysis, and environmental assessments. These surveys form critical baseline data for development projects and regulatory compliance.
