Hydrographic Surveys

A Hydrographic Survey shows the levels and topography of the bed of a body of water including dams, creeks, rivers, harbours and open water. This type of survey is extremely useful for the design and construction of structures that have their foundations beneath the waterline. Using a multi-beam echo sounder also makes it possible to determine the depth, thickness and volume of sediment that has been deposited over time.

3D data capture gathers information from the real world, translates it to X,Y and Z coordinates and presents it in a digital format. Depending on the features to be captured, this may be suited to survey by Total Station, GPS Rover, 3D Laser Scanner, UAV, Drone, LiDAR or Photogrammetry.

Not all Surveyors and survey companies are the same. Unfortunately, there are ‘cowboys’ within our industry with poor standards relating to quality and service.

Always make sure you use a Registered Surveyor. Nearly every type of survey requires the work to be undertaken or supervised by a Registered Surveyor. Every survey that shows a property boundary (including Detail and Contour Surveys and Construction Surveys) must be undertaken or supervised by a Registered Surveyor.

Make sure your Surveyor provides you with a clear scope of inclusions and exclusions to avoid any variations and hidden fees. Ask them to confirm their fees up front.

Make sure their survey will satisfy the unique and specific requirements of your local Council.

Ask your Surveyor about their Quality Assurance policies and procedures. Your project is too important to risk using a Surveyor that provides poor quality information or advice.

Ask your Surveyor about their service and communication procedures. Make sure they will keep you informed through each step of the process.
