Geospatial certainty is fundamental to the success of any construction project, from design and planning stages to groundworks, civil and structural engineering, fit-out and cladding, and recording as-built. 360 Surveys provides a range of trusted services to assist at each stage of a development project lifecycle. Our greenfield/brownfield topographical and aerial surveys provide engineers and contractors with the certainty they need to accurately plan their work. Our subsurface surveys help ensure the development is connected to existing utilities and help avoid dangerous and costly utility strikes during construction. We can assist with the accurate set-out of complex or high-precision elements of a build. Our digital reality capture techniques ensure accurate capture of the as-built outcome of a project enabling the adoption of digital maintenance processes and asset optimization during the in-use phase of the development.
360 Surveys can assist construction contractors in managing geospatial coordination on their sites. We assist through the use of near real-time verified data, and the establishment of digital construction techniques and workflows.

The construction sector is typically one of the biggest in any economy, generally contributing between 5 – 10% of GDP. The sector is vibrant, fast-paced but risk-averse. A successful construction project balances the needs of multiple stakeholders, logistics of materials supply, availability of labor and machinery, and management of budgets and programs. Good management and coordination of these needs will result in a high-quality piece of infrastructure and provide good value to the client. Due to the scale of construction projects, small efficiency improvements can lead to large savings. 360 Surveys offer multiple construction-related geospatial services to help increase efficiency; manage risk on your projects and reduce cost.
Reliable geospatial data is key to the success of any civil engineering project. The coordination of multiple stakeholders on large infrastructure projects is a particular challenge, especially on large linear projects. There are likely to be multiple consultancies contributing to the design phase and potentially multiple contractors, with multiple teams, on-site constructing the infrastructure. In addition, the client will need to understand progress in near real-time to manage the project effectively. The geospatial coordination of multiple work fronts and stakeholders is an essential part of this with multiple benefits for all.

Infrastructure networks typically consist of linear assets traversing entire regions or countries. The coordination of multiple stakeholders on large infrastructure projects is a particular challenge, especially on large linear projects. There are likely to be numerous consultancies contributing to the planning and design phases and potentially multiple contractors, with several active work zones, constructing the asset. The client needs to understand progress in near real-time to manage the project effectively. 360 Surveys can partner with infrastructure clients to manage the geospatial coordination of multiple work fronts and stakeholders on infrastructure projects with multiple benefits for all. Long linear projects present unique complications regarding geospatial coordination due to grid reference alignment and geoid transformations. The understanding of true position consistency and determination should not be underestimated and poses many technical problems to project stakeholders who may all approach these challenges differently. Governance is part of the solution to overcome these problems.

360 Surveys can establish and govern project control networks to ensure that all stakeholders remain coordinated. Our surveys become the single source of truth for a project resulting in less risk of design clashes and problems with misalignments on site. Coordinated project data makes possible the use of machine control for construction equipment and near-real-time feedback on the status of the site through monitoring data. Our infrastructure inspection services and long-term monitoring systems help asset owners understand the condition and operational status of their networks
Our infrastructure binds our society together and enables it to function. Roads, railways, airports, harbors, and utilities: these physical components are interconnected into complex systems to support trade, health, government, education, employment, industry, tourism – in essence, all parts of our society, economy, and life as we know it. Due to its scale and importance, infrastructure is a significant investment for any government or licensed private operator. 360 Surveys recognize the importance of our infrastructure, the need to optimize its planning, design, and construction, and the need to maximize its safe operational life to support our economy.

The data fed into smart city systems is geospatial. The information needs to be associated with positional coordinates to gain actionable insights and enable the right decisions to be made. Our capture and modeling services help to create the 3D digital world upon which smart city information is layered. Our real-time monitoring data is used to reduce the impact of construction activity on the quality of life of neighboring residents. There are so many future applications of real-time geospatial data to help optimize the performance of our built environment. 360 Surveys will continue evolving to support smart city initiatives into the future.

A smart city uses digitized information to optimize the performance of its systems and services. Historical and real-time data can be used to model and predict demands on energy use, transportation, waste disposal, and utilities to effectively plan and operate the infrastructure needed to support these systems. Leveraging the power of information and communication technology (ICT) enables the use of real-time sensory data to populate dashboards and alert city managers to emerging problems. Furthermore, the analysis of historical data supplements the decision support tools used to optimize the performance of our cities into the future, reducing consumption of raw materials, energy use, waste, and costs. This supports the sustainability of our cities as we face the uncertainty posed by climate change.

Due to the health and safety risks, security concerns, and logistical challenges of access to many industrial facilities, it is important to ensure data is captured correctly on the first attempt with no need for revisits. 360 Surveys employ mass capture technology and innovative mobile solutions to ensure that the maximum amount of data is captured and banked for processing when required.
The industrial sector demands certainty in all its processes. From cleantech to pharmaceutical, oil, and gas to food and dairy, the construction and fit-out tolerances required mean there is no room for error. 360 Surveys are a trusted partner on these complex development projects where time is critical and data needs to be captured accurately, efficiently, and safely. Prospective projects include Pharmaceutical, Cleanroom & Cleantech, Manufacturing and Production, Renewable Energy, Oil and Gas (onshore & offshore), Food & Dairy, Equine & Agriculture, Data Centres, Quarry, and Mining.

We continually support the property sector through digital transformation to adopt the latest digital technology, including Building Information Modelling, which is poised to become the framework for future planning, design, and building operations, and performance analysis. Our trusted services will allow conveyance and development to proceed with reduced risk, help avoid disputes, and maximize the return on investment.
The property encompasses the built environment. It is the homes we live in; the places we work, shop, and socialize; the facilities that provide our essential services. This vast and vibrant sector includes buildings that are hundreds of years old to the latest high-rise steel and glass office blocks; planned new developments to deep retrofits of existing buildings. Due to its size, complexity, and never-ending activity, services from many disciplines are required to ensure the sector meets the needs of society. Geospatial services are key to coordinating these varied disciplines throughout the property lifecycle, from design and planning to construction, purchase, management, and redevelopment.

The public sector helps to support the governance and administration of our country to ensure a healthy, safe, and just society for all. The sector generally operates at national, regional, and local levels through governments, states/provinces, and county or local authorities. It provides essential public services such as education, emergency services, health, policing, and other social services. In some jurisdictions, public sector services also include postal services, public transport, and waste management. It is the responsibility of our public servants to ensure that these services are operated efficiently to a high level of service, ensuring value for money for the taxpayer. 360 Surveys can help these organizations to achieve this through the provision of our trusted services.
