Topographical Survey
Client:
Residential Client
Location:
Cerne Abbas, Dorset
Year:

Client Brief
The original brief from the client was to prepare survey plans of the existing site and building to support the planning process for a renovation project on a thatched cottage.
To assist the architect in developing a detailed planning application, a Topographical/Land survey, along with elevations and floorplans, was required.
Delivery & Method
The Topographical Survey was conducted using a Robotic Trimble VX Total Station. The collected data was downloaded and processed through Carlson Survey software to generate preliminary survey plans. These were then refined by our CAD ream into detailed drawings, ready for the architect.
Due to the complex nature of the building facades, the Faro S350 Laser Scanner was used for scanning both the interior and exterior. This advanced instrument captures 1 million points per second, ensuring high precision.
Project Outcome
The scan data was processed back at the office to create rectified images. From these, the CAD team developed detailed elevations for the property culminating in the final street scene layout.
