What detail can be shown on a topographic survey?

At Michael Gallie and Partners, we work with our clients at the tendering stage to ensure we are going to provide a deliverable that meets both scope and budgetary requirements. We will work with you to provide a bespoke survey tailored to your requirements. We can provide simple outline topographic surveys detailing just building footprints, kerb lines and levels, through to BIM compliant Revit models of topographic detail, showing all hard and soft landscape details. Typical features that can be detailed in topographic surveys include:

  • Building footprints.
  • Kerb lines, including kerb drops.
  • Street furniture, including lamp posts, benches, traffic barriers, bollards, post boxes, phone/internet boxes, traffic lights, traffic signs, bus stops, public sculptures, and waste receptacles.
  • Surface finishes, changes in surface and trench scars.
  • Service covers and manholes.
  • Trees (with species, spread, girth and height noted) and vegetation.
  • Levels related to OS datum to detail the significant height changes. These can be provided at any grid intervals required.
  • Contours.
  • Road markings.
  • Boundary markers.

Our topographic surveys can be supplemented with underground utility and CCTV surveys. We can also incorporate land registry mapping or design information, such as pedestrian zoning areas, into topographic surveys.
