TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEYS:
A Topographic Survey is primarily used for design by engineers and architects. A 3-D model is created by gathering points with horizontal and vertical locations along break lines such as flow lines, swales, ridges, tops and toes of arroyo banks, tops and toes of concrete structures such as retaining walls, curb and gutter, sidewalks, ramps, steps, ect. Once the 3-D model is created and properly edited, contours can be generated at any contour interval or cross-sections can be produced at any alignment station. Along with labeled contours, the survey will usually include boundary lines, easements, boundary monuments found, improvements such as roads, buildings, sidewalks, curb and gutter, retaining walls, planters and visible utilities.
