Typically required at the beginning of nearly all construction projects, topographical surveys give engineers detailed information about the site and project they are working on. The results of a topographical survey can aid designers, architects, planners and engineers in the early stages of a project’s design and planning, as well as demonstrating how land has altered over time for redevelopment purposes. Topographical surveys can show details regarding the property, land features or physical boundaries.
