Our Topographical Surveying Services

A topographical survey provides a detailed and accurate representation of the earth’s surface, including natural and man-made features. This information is crucial for construction and development, engineering, and resource management projects. We can assist with:

Land Transfer and Cadastral Survey

Our licensed cadastral surveyors play a crucial role in the land transfer process. We accurately establish new lot boundaries, ensuring the property lines are clearly defined and legally compliant. For property ownership and development, these boundaries provide a solid foundation for land transactions and help prevent future disputes.

Our surveyors will prepare the necessary legal survey plans to formalise property titles, ensuring that ownership rights are secure and enforceable. 

Easement Surveys

Easements are rights of use granted over property for specific purposes, such as utilities or access. Our Auckland cadastral surveyors are licensed and can conduct easement surveys to precisely define and document these rights, ensuring all parties involved understand their obligations and limitations.

We help you avoid misunderstandings and potential conflicts. 

Boundary Marking and Redefinition

Our licensed cadastral surveyors use state-of-the-art equipment and techniques to precisely mark and define property boundaries.

Boundary marking and redefinition help prevent disputes and is particularly important for construction projects, providing clear guidelines for building and development activities. 

Cross-lease and Unit Title Surveys

Our team can conduct cross-lease and unit title surveys, which are essential for properties divided into multiple ownership units, like townhouses or apartment complexes. These surveys establish the legal framework for the ownership and management of individual units within the property. We can help maximise property value and ensure legal clarity, protecting the interests of all owners.

At Horizon, we tailor our deliverables to your specific requirements, working closely with you to ensure you receive the information and documentation needed for your project. Some common deliverables from topographical surveys include:

  • Topographic Survey Plan: A 2D representation of the land’s surface, showing contours, elevations, and features like buildings, roads, and water bodies.
  • Digital Terrain Model (DTMs): A 3D model of the land’s surface providing precise elevation data for analysis, planning, and engineering applications.
  • Digital Surface Model (DSMs): A 3D model that includes both the ground surface and any objects above it, such as vegetation, buildings, and powerlines.

The timeline of a topographic survey can vary based on the site’s size, complexity, and conditions. Additionally, the specific requirements and deliverables requested by the client can lengthen the timeline.

For typical surveying jobs, we can complete field work within a few days, while the report can take a few weeks to complete. However, more complex, large scale projects may take several months from start to finish.
