Data Processing & CAD Bureau

Total Surveys believe that the best person to process a survey is the surveyor who has seen the site and surveyed it! Therefore our
surveyors process their own data.
Our CAD Department is used for final drawing presentation & production. We take pride in the presentation of our drawings; which we produce as technically informative, well laid-out drawings prepared with draughtsmanship skills.
We are able to produce traditional hard copy drawings on paper or film, and also data on disk in a wide range of software formats, including;
- AutoCAD DWG & DXF
- Microstation
- Moss / MX Site
- PanTerra
- PDS
With the various export options available to us, we should be able to provide data in most formats. If you have a particular requirement, please contact us and we will be pleased to advise further.
Hydrographic survey data can be provided in specialist software formats as used by hydraulic modellers, including:

We also offer a
CAD Bureau facility, and can carry out
CAD (Computer-aided design) work from a client’s brief, and
produce drawings as required.
For example, we can produce
schematic drawings for clients who require a graphical representation of features (which they do not require to be accurately measured or surveyed); needed for asset management /
GIS purposes.
