Surveying for Large-Scale Construction Projects
I'm managing a large-scale commercial construction project, and we’re in the early stages. What surveying techniques or tools are most effective for mapping out massive sites like industrial parks or high-rise developments? How do surveyors handle the complexity of coordinating data for multiple contractors on projects of this scale?

For large-scale commercial projects like industrial parks or high-rise developments, surveyors often use tools like RTK GNSS systems, total stations, UAV/drone photogrammetry, and LiDAR to map extensive areas quickly and with high precision. They generate digital terrain models (DTMs), control networks, and benchmark points that all contractors reference. To coordinate multiple contractors, a central GIS or BIM platform is typically used so everyone works off the same models and datasets. Clear version control, regular update cycles, and site stakeouts ensure consistency. For experienced surveying help, see
