What is Topographical Survey
Falcon Survey has a topographical survey with an accurate depiction of a site property, area of land, defined boundary which is measurement and comprehensive conforming to the spatial considerations and therefore the summary of the on-site data capture processes. Falcon survey is operated across UAE including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah – providing dedicated and expert professionals in topographical survey as insights of topological professionals are essential in this type – it is a detailed process that requires ensuring the accuracy of all of the reports provided.
- Site entry points for vehicle and pedestrian.
- Site boundary conditions (Eg. Wall/fence) with top of the level indicated.
- Location of all existing utilities, which are visible to above the ground level.
- Existing Services will be identified using Ground Markers.
- Existing building lines / Property Boundaries
- Boundary features (fences, gates, walls, hedges, etc.).
- Pavements curb and road levels and lines within the plot boundary will be indicated.
- Description of ground surfaces (Interlock, grassy, rocky, sandy, etc.).
- All Existing trees and planting
- Retaining Walls (description). Sidewalks, Driveways, Curbs, etc.
- Location of electric poles (MV, LV and ELV networks) visible to above the ground level
- Names of streets and road ways abutting or adjoining the project area
Why is Topographical Survey?
We produce accurate land and site surveys that capture all visible physical features — from boundaries and buildings to trees, levels, and services. Our surveys are tailored to your needs and delivered in formats compatible with CAD, Revit, and GIS.
Our Surveys Include:
Building outlines and heights, Ground levels and contours Trees, fences, walls, roads, Drainage covers and utilities, Surface materials and spot heights, Watercourses, embankments, ditches and many more.
Measured Building Surveys
We offer detailed floor plans, elevations, and cross-sections for existing structures. Perfect for refurbishments, extensions, or Building Information Modelling (BIM).
Utility Surveys (Underground)Using GPR and electromagnetic detection, we map underground pipes and cables. Often combined with topographical surveys for complete site visibility.
GPS & Control Network EstablishmentWe set up high-accuracy control points for construction, monitoring, and geospatial referencing using GNSS and Total Station technology.
Drone/UAV SurveysWe use drones to efficiently survey large or hard-to-access sites. Photogrammetry and LiDAR options available for orthophotos, digital terrain models (DTMs), and volumetric analysis.
These surveys are essential for architects, engineers, developers, and planners, providing the foundation for successful site design and development.
Why Do You Need a Topographical Survey?✔️ Planning Applications – Support your planning submission with accurate site data
✔️ Architectural Design – Understand site constraints and levels for new builds or extensions
✔️ Engineering Projects – Aid in drainage, road, and foundation design
✔️ Land Development – Plan infrastructure, subdivisions, and site layout.
✔️ Dispute Resolution – Clarify land ownership, boundaries, or encroachments.
