In Melbourne’s fast-paced architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sectors, aerial drone photography is a game-changer. From capturing sweeping site overviews to inspecting hard-to-reach structures, the insights gleaned from above have rapidly transformed how professionals document progress, verify data and market their work. But with so many providers vying for attention, […]

In recent years, drone technology has revolutionised the way we capture and interpret the world around us. No longer confined to aerial photography, today’s unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) deliver centimetre-accurate maps and 3D models that inform critical decisions in urban planning and infrastructure development. In Melbourne, where a delicate balance […]

A construction set out survey gives builders, architects and site engineers the much-needed clarity and guidance on the ground to commence turning their designs into reality. Setout surveys are reference points for building and construction professionals to commence constructing a building as per the architectural plans/drawings.  Set out surveys are […]

As a professional in the field of surveying, I have witnessed the rapid development of technology in the industry. One of the most significant advancements in recent years is the use of drone mounted LiDAR technologies. LiDAR (stands for light detection and ranging) is a remote sensing method that uses […]

As-Built Surveys capture the existing conditions for conversion into architectural drawings, models, immersive visualisations and animations. This process of generating 2D drawings and 3D models can turn the most complex infrastructure designs into a powerful and feature rich visual representation of the building or structure and both its interior and […]

Drones (or UAVs) have completely changed the way we conduct land surveying over large areas. And the main reason why AEC professionals are using drones in land surveying is efficiency and data quality. Drones come equipped with GPS and GNSS navigation that reduces the risk of human errors and increases […]

It is no simple feat to construct a building from the ground up or renovate an existing property.  There is much thought and meticulous planning that goes on behind the scenes.  Feature surveys and boundary (or investigation) surveys are among the first steps land surveyors take to get accurate site […]

The reason why is much simpler than you might think.  When you search on Google with the query – “land surveyors near me” you are asking for the top 3 Google business listings which are closest to your present location.  They are ranked by Google using a list of key […]

Drones have been around for a while now, used actively in the AEC (Architecture, Engineering & Construction) industry for surveying and aerial mapping, site and asset inspections, drone photography for project marketing and more.  These flying cameras are accessible, convenient, and a great alternative to manual site inspections or helicopters. […]

Builders and on-site engineers complete many activities before actual construction work begins. Land surveyors use set surveys to check if the on-paper design translates to the actual position on the ground. Construction Surveys involve transferring the design of the building to the land so that builders can construct the building in […]
