Topographic Surveys Land Clarity Starts Here

 A topographic survey is a precise and comprehensive mapping of the natural and built features of a land area. At Slater Surveys, we capture essential site data—such as ground elevations, buildings, trees, drainage covers and surface details—to support architectural planning, civil engineering, and construction preparation. Whether you're working on a greenfield development, road design, or planning submission, our topographic surveys provide the foundational data you need to move forward with confidence. 

 Each project starts with a clear scope of work based on your site and design needs. We then conduct a detailed site visit using advanced survey instruments to accurately record: 

• Land contours and elevation changes 
• Buildings, boundary lines, road features, and utility covers 
• Trees, hedgerows, and other natural features 
• Drainage covers, watercourses, and surface infrastructure 

We also establish survey control points to ensure all data is geospatially referenced to national grid or site-specific coordinate systems. 

We combine field expertise with powerful tools to ensure precision: 

• GNSS Receivers (GPS) – for real-time positioning 
• Robotic Total Stations – for detailed angle and distance readings
• n4ce, AutoCAD, and Cyclone Register 360 – for CAD drafting, point cloud handling, and contour modeling 

 Our topographic survey deliverables are accurate, professional, and tailored to your project: 

• 2D topographical site plans (DWG, PDF, DXF) 
• 3D terrain models (optional) - Contour maps, spot levels, and feature annotations 
• All data supplied with full quality assurance checks 

Our team combines technical precision with practical knowledge to deliver accurate, reliable topographical data.

With up to a decade of experience in topographical surveys on a wide range of projects including residential, industrial, agricultural and commercial, we understand the complexities when it comes to your projects.

We use the latest surveying instruments, including GPS, total stations and laser scanner for maximum accuracy and efficiency, for data you can rely on.

Every survey is tailored to your project's specific requirements,  ensuring clear communication and rapid turnarounds.
