Topographical Survey Project at Windmill Hill: Precision, Detail & Innovative Scanning Techniques

20 November 2025

In September, the Cadplan team headed to Windmill Hill to complete a comprehensive topographical survey, capturing the full detail and character of this unique location. The project required a combination of traditional surveying expertise and advanced digital equipment to ensure accurate data collection across the entire site.

Our surveyors carried out full elevations and site sections, mapping key features and levels to support the next stages of planning and design work for the client. Due to the challenging terrain and the need to capture difficult-to-reach areas, we deployed a remote scanner mounted on a large extending tripod. This allowed us to gather high-resolution data safely and efficiently, even in locations where standard equipment wouldn’t have been suitable.

The result was a precise and fully coordinated survey dataset, providing our client with the detailed information needed for informed decision-making at every stage of their project.

At Cadplan, we take pride in combining technical capability with innovative tools to deliver high-quality surveying solutions—no matter the complexity of the site.
