Services
Cadastral Surveying
Cadastral surveying establishes legal boundaries for land, water, and air space through precise measurements and title research. Our team uses advanced GPS and robotic total stations to ensure compliance with statutory standards. Clients benefit from accurate boundary staking, subdivision maps, and dispute resolution services backed by over 50 years of combined expertise.
Subdivision Surveys
Subdivision surveys convert large parcels into smaller lots through meticulous planning and fieldwork. We prepare Subdivision Application Maps (S.A.M.) and coordinate with local authorities to ensure regulatory compliance. Our process includes boundary verification, monument placement, and final plan registration, supporting residential, commercial, and government projects across remote and urban environments.
Geomatics Services
Geomatics services integrate topographic mapping, GPS networks, and digital terrain modeling to support infrastructure development. We provide construction control, deformation monitoring, and photogrammetric ground control using state-of-the-art equipment. Clients receive detailed data for site planning, grading certification, and architectural integration, ensuring project accuracy from design to execution.
Remote Area Projects
Remote area projects involve surveying in extreme environments like Nunavut and Northwest Territories. Our team conducts bathymetric surveys, treaty land entitlement mapping, and North Warning System installations using GPS and helicopter logistics. Clients gain reliable data for jurisdictional transfers, dredging verification, and First Nations land allocations, even in locations requiring multi-day travel.
Construction Surveying
Construction surveying ensures accurate layout of buildings, roads, and utilities through stake-out and elevation control. We support projects like the Portage La Prairie Recreation Multiplex with grid line establishment and pile location staking. Clients receive precise measurements for foundation certification, lot grading, and final as-built documentation, ensuring alignment with design specifications.
