Rockhampton Land Surveys: Everything You Need to Know About Local Surveying

Land surveying is more than just measuring boundaries - it ensures precision in planning, risk management and project efficiency.

What’s the process? 

Here’s how we typically work with clients to get the job done right: 

1. We start with a conversation – to understand your project goals, timeframes and site conditions. 

2. We assess the site – visiting the location to confirm access and finalise the scope of work. 

3. We plan the survey – choosing the right tools and methods to suit the job. 

4. We get on site – and capture the data using GPS, drones, laser scanning or traditional methods. 

5. We process and draft – turning raw data into accurate plans or digital files. 

6. We review and deliver – double-checking everything before we hand it over in the format you need.
