Why Choose a Topographic / Land Survey?

A Topographic or Land Survey provides precise, mapped record of natural and man-made features within a defined area - supporting planning, development, and site assessment. They reveal existing conditions and potential obstacles, helping designers create appropriate, site-specific solutions.

The Technology We Use

Using Total Stations, terrestrial scanners, Drones and GPS - combined with 

fundamental surveying methods, we deliver highly accurate data to support your project. This technology allows us to capture fine detail and produce reliable results you can depend on.

What Our Surveys Include

Our surveys record buildings, levels, highways, boundaries, trees, utilities, and all key features. Every survey is delivered with clarity, making complex data easy to interpret.

Bespoke Surveys to Suit Your Project

We tailor every survey to your scope, objectives, and budget. Whether you need a full site plan, boundary marking, elevation data, area measurements, or a Digital Terrain Model (DTM), BDF Surveys provides clear, precise outputs to support confident decision-making.

L a n d  S u r v e y s
We offer a comprehensive range of Topographical services, all tailored to the needs of your project.

As a standard, our Topographic surveys include -

     Hard-standing and 
  
   natural features 
 
    Buildings (Inc. Ridge &      Eave Levels)
  
   Boundaries
  
   Levels across the site
  
   Above ground services
     Tree positions & 
     
canopies 

This would typically extend to surrounding properties and adjacent roads and paths.

Outputs can be issued in any format, whether in 2D or 3D and can contain additional features such as dimensions and contours.

The Survey can be referenced to an OS/GNSS datum or local coordinates.

D i g i t a l   T e r r a i n   M o d e l s

Measured elevation data helps to create a 3D representation of the ground surface and can be used in construction, agriculture and environmental for applications like site planning, road design, flood analysis and habitat mapping.


With a digital twin showing the topography of your site, we can extract sectional data, view landfalls and calculate earthwork volumes.


A r e a   &   V o l u m e
C a l c u l a t i o ns

A measured plan can give you a precise measurement of the total area of your site or help to divide plots for legal purposes. We can also offer volumetric calculations for a variety of purposes to determine the amount of materials or resources in a given area.

Accurate area and volume calculations ensure proper planning, cost estimation, and resource management in surveying and engineering projects.
B o u n d a r y   S u r v e y s

Existing features and physical demarcations can be measured and plotted onto HM Land Registry plans to give a better understanding of site extents and legal ownership.


We can plot new and historic site boundaries using OS Map coordinates which can then be marked physically on your site.


This is then provided to you in a report containing key information that enables tenants, funders, purchasers, and vendors to make informed decisions
