Engineering surveys for infrastructure projects

Infrastructure projects run for long distances and long programmes, and many teams work on them. They depend on consistent, high-accuracy survey data. MatMap provides engineering surveys for highways, rail, bridges, drainage and utility schemes, helping designers and contractors deliver safely and to tolerance.

Services for infrastructure

Typical infrastructure projects

  • Highway junction improvements and new roads
  • Rail-adjacent works and track monitoring
  • Bridges, culverts and retaining structures
  • Drainage, flood alleviation and utility diversions
  • Car parks, transport hubs and access roads

Safety and minimal disruption

We plan every survey to minimise disruption to traffic and operations. Where possible we use remote, non-contact methods such as laser scanning, which reduce the time surveyors spend near live carriageways and railways.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. We design and run monitoring regimes for track, embankments, bridges and retaining walls, with agreed trigger levels and prompt reporting.

Yes. We combine GNSS, traversing and precise levelling, with least squares adjustment, to give consistent control along the full length of a scheme.

We plan surveys around traffic management and quieter periods, and use remote methods such as laser scanning to reduce time spent near live carriageways.

Yes. We survey bridges, culverts and retaining structures for design, condition records and movement monitoring, often combining total stations and laser scanning.

Yes. We produce as-built drawings of roads, kerbs, drainage and street furniture to meet the requirements of highway authorities.

Yes. We provide topographical surveys for design, setting out for construction and as-built records of diverted services and drainage.
