Geodetic and Topographic Survey

Topographic surveying itself is the transfer of the terrain’s relief using digital and other equipment onto a paper or electronic medium. Creating a project is a lengthy process and takes place at a desk rather than on the open site where the structure will be erected. However, it is practically impossible to create a building design without tying it to the locality; if it is done so, adjustments related to the location are expected to be made.

Topographic and geodetic works are mandatory by law in the following cases:

• before the construction of a building;
• before laying utilities;
• when preparing the master plan of a territory;
• for conducting surveys and other site inspections;
• for maintaining land and urban planning cadastres;
• for carrying out cartographic work.

Topographic surveying can be carried out for different purposes and therefore uses various methods and technologies as well as different ways of fixing the results. By this criterion, topographic surveying is divided into several categories:

• General topogeodetic surveying when it is necessary to prepare a project, carry out land demarcation or other engineering surveys. Depending on the client’s requirements, the scale of the survey varies from 1:500 to 1:10000.
• Topographic surveying for landscape design, implying large-scale description of the plot as a whole and its individual elements.
• Surveying of aboveground and underground structures (engineering utilities laid underground).
• Route surveying, i.e., surveying of linear structures, is carried out when it is necessary to design a road, lay an electrical cable or gas pipeline, or erect power transmission lines.

Cost of carrying out topographic and geodetic surveying largely depends on the distance of the plot from Kyiv, its area and terrain.

Our company’s staff use high-tech equipment to carry out surveys, which ensures that the results are highly accurate and fully correspond to the actual condition of the site. Experienced professionals will perform the surveying procedure in Kyiv and Kyiv region quickly and efficiently, and will prepare all necessary documents in minimal time without any delays.
