Technical Services
Precision surveying solutions delivering legally defensible boundaries and critical site data for commercial and residential development.
Boundary Survey
A rigorous mathematical and legal determination of property lines. We recover existing monumentation, evaluate deed discrepancies, and establish defensible boundaries to resolve disputes and secure ownership.
Deliverables
- Signed and sealed boundary plat
- Set ½" rebar with licensed surveyor caps at all property corners
- Detailed legal description of the tract
- Identification of visible encroachments
Technical Specifications
Utilizing Trimble R12i GNSS receivers and robotic total stations for millimeter-level precision in diverse canopy conditions.
Topographic Survey
Detailed mapping of natural and man-made features, establishing three-dimensional relationships. Essential for civil engineering, architectural design, and drainage analysis prior to development.
Deliverables
- Digital Terrain Model (DTM) and 1-foot contour mapping
- Location of all visible utilities, structures, and hardscapes
- Tree locations (specimen or canopy drip lines as requested)
- AutoCAD Civil 3D format drawing files (.dwg)
Technical Specifications
Data collection via high-density terrestrial laser scanning and conventional robotic total stations for complex site geometry.
ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey
The gold standard for commercial real estate transactions. This comprehensive survey integrates boundary data with title commitments to expose risks like easements, zoning issues, and unrecorded encumbrances.
Deliverables
- Strict compliance with current ALTA/NSPS standards
- Plotting of all Schedule B-II title exceptions
- Table A optional responsibilities (as negotiated)
- Multiple sealed hard copies and digital PDFs for closing
Technical Specifications
Requires intensive deed and title research, coordinating directly with title examiners and legal counsel to ensure clean property transfer.
Construction Staking
Translating paper plans to the physical site with pinpoint accuracy. We establish control points, grade stakes, and offsets that guide contractors through every phase of the building process.
Deliverables
- Foundation and footing layout stakes
- Grading and earthwork cut/fill stakes
- Utility trench line and grade staking
- As-built verification surveys
Technical Specifications
Real-time kinematic (RTK) GNSS positioning paired with robotic total stations for immediate stakeout in all site conditions.
Subdivision Layout
Dividing larger tracts of land into smaller parcels, complete with platting and adherence to local zoning regulations. We navigate the regulatory process from initial concept to final recorded plat.
Deliverables
- Preliminary and final subdivision plats
- Lot and road centerline staking
- Compliance review with local ordinances
- Monument set at all lot corners
Technical Specifications
Coordinated with municipal planning commissions in compliance with Arkansas Act 186 of 1957 and local subdivision regulations.
Elevation Certificate
FEMA-compliant documentation of building elevations to determine flood insurance rates and compliance with local floodplain ordinances. Critical for properties in or near Special Flood Hazard Areas.
Deliverables
- FEMA Elevation Certificate (Form 086-0-33)
- Building diagram and photograph documentation
- Flood zone determination and BFE reference
- Digital submission-ready PDF format
Technical Specifications
Precise vertical datum connections to NAVD88 using Arkansas GeoRef CORS network for survey-grade elevation accuracy.
