Relocation Survey
conducts to re-establish or verify the exact location of property boundaries based on existing legal land descriptions, titles, or survey plans. It involves physically locating and marking boundary corners or lines on the ground using survey instruments and referencing official records from government agencies such as the Land Registration Authority (LRA) or DENR.
The purpose of a relocation survey is to ensure that land boundaries are accurately defined and to resolve any uncertainties, potential encroachments, or disputes. It is commonly required for property transfers, fence constructions, building permits, and legal documentation.
Topographic Survey
detailed and accurate survey that maps the natural and man-made features of a land surface, including its elevations, contours, vegetation, water bodies, roads, structures, and utilities. It is used to determine the terrain and surface characteristics of a site, which are essential for planning, engineering design, and construction.
The survey captures both horizontal and vertical data to create a three-dimensional representation of the site. Total stations, GPS, drones, and other geodetic instruments are commonly used to gather precise data, which is then processed into maps, digital terrain models (DTMs), and contour plans.
Desktop Survey
A Desktop Survey is a preliminary, non-intrusive assessment that gathers and analyzes existing data and geospatial information to evaluate a site’s physical, legal, environmental, and geotechnical conditions. It includes the review of cadastral maps, land titles, existing survey data, aerial/satellite imagery, topographic and terrain data, as well as environmental and zoning constraints.
This study also incorporates hazard maps (e.g., flood, landslide, coastal erosion) to identify site vulnerabilities and assess potential development risks.
Georeferenced maps and terrain models are developed using Geographic Information System (GIS) tools, enabling accurate spatial analysis, data integration, and visualization.
Deliverables typically include GIS-based maps, hazard overlays, terrain models, title analysis, boundary assessments, zoning reviews, and electronic survey files in various formats (e.g., .dwg, shapefile, .kmz, GeoTIFF).
