Ground Surveying​

Ground surveying includes the acquisition of measurements and observations directly from the terrain, employing advanced technology to gather precise and real-time geospatial data. Total Station surveys stand out for their remarkable accuracy and versatility, rendering them suitable for a wide array of applications, such as land development, construction site layout, boundary surveys, and engineering design. The precision and efficiency offered by Total Station instruments have firmly established them as indispensable tools in contemporary surveying and mapping practices. It’s worth noting that the NLCS imposes a 35% overhead fee on the actual expenses incurred during topographical survey field work.
