Construction surveying involves a set of techniques and measurements performed by a surveyor primarily to determine and mark the boundaries and features of a site, and to accurately position the planned construction elements on the site. It ensures precision in the work, controls costs, and ensures the quality and compliance of the constructions.
Can-Explore provides a comprehensive range of construction surveying services tailored to the real estate/building sector. Whether it’s residential subdivisions, commercial complex developments, or large-scale projects, we ensure accurate surveys, thorough monitoring, and flawless execution for your construction needs.
Construction surveying for your industry sector:
Our surveying services for the building sector:
Staking out structures
Precise positioning for foundations and structures.
Formwork and concreting
Technical assistance for formwork and concrete pouring, ensuring optimal execution.
Construction site supervision
Our periodic surveys enable tracking of site progress, anticipating necessary adjustments, and ensuring compliance with specifications. For more information, please visit our construction site supervision page.
As-built plans
Updating plans according to actual conditions for accurate documentation of infrastructure.
Quantity/volume calculations
We ensure thorough tracking and precise validation of dimensions and quantities for payment works, allowing for reliable estimates, resource optimization, and minimization of overages and unforeseen issues for more effective cost management.
3D Scanning/Photogrammetry
Detailed site representation for simplified management and planning. For more details on this service, visit our page on 3D scanning, photogrammetry, or mobile mapping.
Excavation work – Cut and fill
Determination of foundation levels by grading the terrain with a grid of elevation points, ensuring a flat surface ready for construction.
Floor flatness and levelness (FFFL)
Surface levelness control to ensure compliance with tolerance standards, essential for infrastructures requiring optimal flatness.
As-built Plans
The “as-built” plan is a document representing the final state of a project after completion. It differs from the initial plans by reflecting modifications and adjustments made during construction.
Can-Explore leverages the most advanced technologies in the industry to produce as-built plans (TQC) tailored to the real estate sector. Our tools, including fixed-wing drones and 3D scanners, allow us to map terrains and structures quickly and with unmatched accuracy.
Our specialized surveying tools:
WingtraOne GEN II from Wingtra
The WingtraOne GEN II is an advanced, intelligent mapping drone that delivers unmatched performance for surveying large sites (photogrammetry). This drone maximizes coverage in a single flight, capable of covering up to 460 hectares in one hour, optimizing surveying operations by reducing labor hours. With its VTOL design (vertical takeoff and landing), it performs exceptionally well on vegetation‑free terrain. The WingtraOne GEN II is equipped with a 61 MP camera, providing the highest‑quality imagery with an absolute horizontal accuracy of less than one centimeter.

Leica Pegasus TRK 700 Neo
The Leica Pegasus TRK 700 Neo is a state‑of‑the‑art mobile mapping tool capable of capturing more than one million LiDAR points per second. Powered by artificial intelligence, it is the ideal solution for rapid surveying of long roadway segments. With integrated SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) and high‑precision RTK (Real Time Kinematics) positioning, this system georeferences geospatial data with centimeter‑level accuracy. Its built‑in cameras with ISOFIX finally allow RGB photo colorization to be applied to the point clouds collected by its LiDAR scanner.

NavVis MLX from NavVis
The NavVis MLX transforms 3D reality capture with its advanced, portable technology. Its compact and ergonomic design offers unmatched mobility for surveyors, making it ideal for quickly and efficiently scanning the interior of a building or structure. With its 32‑layer LiDAR sensor combined with SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) software, this system delivers the highest point‑cloud quality among comparable tools. Finally, its four integrated cameras capture high‑resolution 360º images, enabling RGB photo colorization to be applied to the point clouds collected by its LiDAR scanner.
