How Topographical Surveying Can Work for You

At Tararua Land Surveyors we work across a broad range of skills that are useful - or essential - when you are looking to buy or develop property. One of our specialised areas of expertise is Topographical Surveying, this practice is about taking the guesswork of choosing the right spot to build on the land that you want to build on. So when is the right time to engage a Topographical Surveyor? Let’s find out.

Be Prepared

Perhaps you have a piece of property that has a number of structures on it, it may be fenced or have trees, waterways or other natural features within its boundaries. When you are looking to add a structure to your land, it is extremely useful to undertake a topographical survey in order to find the best place to begin your build. Tararua Land Surveyors can work with you to discover the contours and elevations of your land, identify where there may be levelling required before you are able to build, and flag any potential problems before you begin excavation.

A Clear Picture

Architects, renovation builders and engineers all use topographic survey data, so it’s a good idea to have this booked and undertaken before you begin your design and build process. Tararua Land Surveyors have all the tools and equipment required to carry out a successful topographic survey - which can be a highly technical process. Once the data has been collected it is generally presented as a CAD file - this means you can see it on the computer in a digital format that includes 2D, and sometimes 3D images.

Work With the Terrain

A topographical survey will help you to make the best of the land you have available, it may even feed into a great architectural design, as your team will be able to work with the terrain to produce something that utilises the features that are already available.
