The application of design to realization requires expert construction surveyors for laying out. Southern Survey and Design works at the schedule of construction and uses GNSS, total stations, optical levels, and tape measures to establish construction points. This work demands accuracy, precision, and efficiency to guarantee our client's investments. Surveyors are necessary to coordinate plan sets with survey data, establish accurate control, buy supplies, and work out the logistics of your job site before you start moving dirt.

Southern Survey and Design's experience as service providers in the integrity aspect of midstream companies is extensive with several miles of open ditch as-built data collection, subsurface location, depth of cover surveys, in-line tool tracking, and anomaly dig staking. The leadership of our company have successfully completed multiple consulting projects as solution architects for global petroleum corporations and continue to implement mapping solutions. Improving data quality in transmission and gathering systems is one of the best returns on investment a midstream company will implement.

As a subsidiary of Trendsetter Construction, Inc. we compliment their work schedule by validating site control and construction staking foundations for excavation. Using GNSS, we stake out everything from conduit runs, perimeter fencing, and grade stakes. Well maintained control points during the construction phase is critical. Whether monuments exist and need to be published and maintained in the field or if Southern Survey and Design technicians need to build permanent concrete monuments and establish the coordinate system, our clients rely on our accuracy and data integrity for the task.

Our clients pay Southern Survey and Design because of our knowledge, dedicated service, and the expectation to profit through efficiency. Often it is difficult to facilitate the correct conversations without a preliminary feasibility survey. With our client's problems at hand, we rely on our deep professional network to solve complex problems.
