We will prepare an up-to-date 1:500 scale topographic plan of the plot for your architect, master planner, and landscape design. We survey the terrain, structures, and visible utilities before design work begins within 3 days.
Accurate plot data help you make informed decisions before construction begins.
Interesting factTopographic surveys
Before satellite positioning became widespread, vast territories were linked by triangulation networks. Surveyors measured angles between adjacent stations, building towers and beacons to achieve line of sight above forests. The number of observed neighbouring points depended on the network geometry.

Normal heights in the Russian Baltic System are referenced to the zero mark of the Kronstadt Tide Gauge. This is a horizontal line on a copper plate set into a bridge abutment. Elevations across the country are tied to this datum via the national levelling network.

In standard mode, a GNSS receiver determines three coordinates from the signals of at least four satellites. A fourth unknown is the receiver's own clock bias, which must be solved alongside the position.

The Struve Geodetic Arc is a chain of survey triangulations stretching some 2,820 kilometres, established in the 19th century to determine the exact size and shape of the Earth. Today it runs through ten countries, with 34 of its original station points inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

From field measurements to DWG and PDF plan — 3 days.
We receive details about the plot, verify the cadastral number, and agree on a date for the surveyor's visit. We establish control points on site for accurate positioning of the plot within the coordinate system.
Stage outcome: Geodetic control network for the survey
We carry out instrumental measurements of all key features on the plot and along adjacent boundaries.
Stage outcome: Dataset of field measurements of the site
We process the field data, compile a 1:500 digital drawing and deliver it to the client in convenient formats.
Stage outcome: Completed topographic plan in DWG and PDF
The final deliverables are fully ready to be handed over to your architect, master planner and landscape designer.
First plot — 40,000 roubles, each additional separate plot in a single order with a joint site visit — 30,000 roubles (2 plots — 70,000 roubles, 3 plots — 100,000 roubles).
Order together with your neighbours: one shared site visit, with a separate topographic plan for each plot.
Turnaround time — 3 days.
Order a topographic planThe plan provides accurate information on topography, structures, and access routes, helping to position the house properly and plan surface water drainage.
To start work, simply provide the plot's cadastral number or a diagram of its actual boundaries, and arrange site access for our land surveyors to take measurements.
We plot visible utility elements based on manhole covers, chambers and poles. If necessary, tracing the exact route of buried underground services requires separate utility detection and sign-off from the operating utility companies.
EKVIZ specialists will thoroughly explain all symbols on the drawing and answer any questions from the client or their designers with no time limit after handover.
