Service Overview

Accurate Measurements, Clear Decisions

Surveying is the foundation of good planning. Before a site is designed, subdivided, built on or sold, the important questions include where the boundaries lie, how the land slopes and what physical features are present.

NATHAN ASSOCIATES captures that information using modern instruments and careful field work, then turns it into measurements, marked points, drawings and reports that can be used for planning, design and construction. Our scope covers 17 survey and marking capabilities across land, infrastructure and built environments.

Our Services

Digital Survey & Marking

Accurate, technology-driven geo-spatial data captured with modern instruments - from land, boundary and contour surveys to drone mapping, setting-out and on-site marking.

Topographic survey showing site levels and physical features

Topographical Survey

Captures the existing ground levels and physical features of a site - roads, drains, structures, vegetation and services - as they are today.

What it covers

  • Site measurement data with reduced levels
  • Sketch or plan of the surveyed area
  • Boundary and corner point records, where applicable

Typical use: Starting a layout, planning a building or preparing a design, where the design has to respond to the real condition of the land.

Maps how elevation changes across a site, producing contour lines that show the slope, high points and low points.

What it covers

  • Site measurement data with reduced levels
  • Sketch or plan of the surveyed area
  • Boundary and corner point records, where applicable

Typical use: Working out cut-and-fill volumes, drainage fall and building placement on uneven land.

Detailsfor Drone / Airline Survey
Level transfer marking points set out on a construction site

Level Transfer Marking

Transfers a known reference level from a benchmark to working points across the site, and marks those levels on the ground.

What it covers

  • Control and coordinate data for the site
  • Aerial imagery where an aerial survey is carried out
  • Marked level points referenced to a known benchmark

Typical use: Keeping heights consistent between structures, roads and services during construction.

Pipeline route survey and alignment marking on site

Pipeline Survey / Marking

Maps the route and position of pipelines and marks the alignment on site so it can be followed during excavation and laying work.

What it covers

  • Route or alignment survey data
  • Marked alignment points on site
  • Set-out references for the executing team

Typical use: Planning and coordinating pipeline construction, and avoiding clashes with other services.
