Geospatial surveys

A geospatial survey is a systematic and organized way of collecting, analyzing, and interpreting geospatial data relating to the surface of the Earth. This approach of surveying employs various technologies to capture, process, and present information about the physical, natural, and man-made features of the Earth’s surface in the form of geographic coordinates. Geospatial surveys employ a wide range of techniques, which include satellite imagery, aerial photography, ground surveys with GPS and LiDAR, and advanced spatial data analysis using Geographic Information Systems (GISs). The primary objective of a geospatial survey is to gather accurate and up-to-date information about the Earth’s surface to make informed decisions.

The use of geospatial surveys in the industry

The use of geospatial surveys is multifaceted and spans various industries and applications. One significant application is in urban planning, where geospatial surveys aid in land...
