Contour Survey

A contour line is an imaginary line that passes through the points of equal elevation. Contour surveying is an essential aspect of infrastructure engineering, which involves determining the elevation of various points on the ground, followed by joining points of the same elevation to represent it as a contour map.

In the real estate business, a contour is nothing but the peripheral outline of a landmass. The main objective of conducting contour surveys is to identify any noticeable difference in elevation of the existing land. In Land Surveying, a contour map is a map that contains illustrations of various contour lines, for example, a topographic map, which shows valleys and hills and the steepness or gentleness of slopes. Slopes matching the same height are joined using imaginary lines that are known as contours. The contour map highlights the details of the existing land condition. Based on the contour survey findings, the design team can decide on cutting, filling, widening, and levelling the land.

We customise contour survey services as per the client specifications and is very economical. Once the architect or civil engineer has a contour survey map, they can begin work on the plans, and the survey will indicate how much site works may be required. For example, a sloping site will need to be levelled if you are using a slab construction and therefore, the approximate height of retaining walls and volume of spoil to be removed need to be calculated.
