Services
Topographic Surveys
We conduct detailed topographic surveys using Leica equipment to create accurate site plans for construction and development projects. Our surveys capture terrain features, elevations, and existing structures with millimetre precision. Clients receive digital deliverables compatible with CAD and GIS software for planning and design purposes.
Drone Aerial Photography
Our CAA-licensed drone operators capture high-resolution aerial photographs and 4K video for site documentation and marketing. Using photogrammetry software, we create orthomosaic maps covering large areas with georeferenced accuracy. Clients benefit from cost-effective aerial data collection compared to traditional methods.
3D Modelling
We generate detailed 3D models of landscapes and structures using survey data and drone-captured imagery. These models support visual impact assessments, construction planning, and virtual site walkthroughs. Clients use our 3D visualisations for planning applications and project presentations.
Volumetric Calculations
We perform precise volumetric calculations for quarry stockpiles and earthworks using drone data and total station measurements. Our reports include material volumes with error margins below 2%, supporting inventory management and project costing for mining and construction clients.
Visual Impact Assessments
We conduct visual impact assessments using ZVI (Zone of Visual Influence) software to determine development visibility from public viewpoints. Our reports include line-of-sight analysis and tonal maps, helping clients address planning concerns and design mitigation measures.

Report
I hired Rob and the team to survey a sloping garden plot for re-design. They were able to schedule in the work quickly and turned it around within a day, allowing me to get on with my design. Rob was friendly, professional and efficient. I'd definitely recommend them. Thanks guys!
