Setting out can be viewed as the reverse of surveying, rather than 3 dimensional data being collected on site and used to construct a drawing. A drawing can be used to extract data which can then be loaded onto the instrument for setting out on site.

Setting out can be carried out in many ways depending on the clients needs and tolerances, in the majority of cases a pin, peg, stake or nail would be used to represent a point on a structure to be constructed.

We offer a setting out service for a variety of projects including roads, sewers, houses, piling projects, pipelines, steel frames and many other projects. We use a variety of methods which can be adapted to suit individual clients needs and specification.

We can set out from a variety of data formats ranging from simple lists of co-ordinates, cad drawings, which we can extract co-ordinates and create a dataset to set out together with various other formats.
