Topographic Survey
We provide accurate hi-tech, high-precision topographical surveys. These are designed to gather data on the natural and manmade features of the land, and the contours of the terrain itself. This data is then analysed and interpreted into a 3D, easy-to-understand, base plan.
What is a topographic survey?
Topographical surveys provide the complete picture of your site above ground. They identify the boundaries of your land, existing building positions on or adjacent to your site, and all the road, path and railway locations. They also feature street furniture, watercourses, underground services, pipelines and trees.
Key Benefits
- When executed at the initial stages of a project, these checks prevent costly delays and help to keep projects on track and within budget
- Topographic surveys highlight issues around actual ground levels versus the proposed design levels
- They identify physical and legal boundaries of the site and ensure that they match up with current documentation
- When carried out in conjunction with our Underground Utilities Surveys, you can get the full picture above and below the ground
- Surveys supplied in BIM (Building Information Modelling) compatible software formats for the crucial first layer of building design
- Post construction or as-built surveys

As the contracts Manager for MC Construction, I’m responsible for overseeing several sites and schemes at once, and I am also involved in the design development. For MC Construction to be able to help Royal Mail develop this existing site, we needed a lot of vital underground information on the location. Powers were able to provide us with an underground utility survey, that was clear and accurate, enabling us to be able to place the Hydrobrake in the most efficient position and excavate the car park, without putting our team and others in danger.
