What Is a Topographic Survey?

 A topographic survey is a detailed survey of existing site conditions that identifies elevations, slopes, drainage patterns, structures, utilities, vegetation, property features, and other physical characteristics of a property.

The survey information is used by engineers, architects, planners, municipalities, and contractors to design projects and evaluate site constraints.


Typical survey information includes:

  • Existing buildings and structures
  • Driveways and hard surfaces
  • Swales and drainage features
  • Retaining walls
  • Trees and vegetation
  • Utility structures
  • Spot elevations
  • Contours
  • Surface drainage patterns 

Why Choose Mooreview Development Management?

Unlike many survey providers, Mooreview combines topographic survey services with civil engineering expertise.


This allows us to evaluate site drainage, grading, development constraints, stormwater management considerations, and municipal requirements while collecting field information.


By understanding how the survey information will ultimately be used, we can ensure the data collected supports efficient design and approvals.
