What is a Topographical Survey?

A topographical survey, sometimes known as a land survey, maps out the physical features of a site. This includes:

  • Boundaries and fences

  • Existing buildings and structures

  • Trees, vegetation, and water features

  • Roads, paths, and access points

  • Service covers and visible utilities

  • Changes in ground levels

The results are presented in detailed drawings or digital files, providing a clear picture of the site’s opportunities and constraints.
