Our Full Range of Geospatial Services
Aerial Surveys
Underhill provides aerial surveys using drones, LiDAR, and photogrammetry to deliver accurate, high-resolution data for planning and development.
Our drone fleet includes RTK/PPK capabilities, offering cost-effective mapping solutions—from small inspections to large-scale terrain surveys with fast turnaround times.
We deliver orthomosaics, DEMs, contours, volume reports, 3D models, and thermal imaging—tailored to forestry, mining, infrastructure, and reclamation projects.
Clients can easily view data through cloud-based tools like Nira, enabling seamless collaboration, visual inspections, and informed decision-making.
Construction & Engineering Surveys
We provide surveying support throughout the construction lifecycle, from initial layout to final as-builts, ensuring every stage is executed with accuracy.
Layouts, Checks, and As-Builts
We provide fast, precise layout and verification surveys on site.
Fast Turnaround for Active Sites
Our team scales to meet active project timelines and updates.
Deformation Monitoring
We perform precise monitoring surveys to detect structural shifts, ground movement, and changes in elevation over time—critical for safety and maintenance.
Detect Structural Movement Early
We monitor movement in structures and earthworks over time.
Preventative Safety for Critical Infrastructure
Ongoing monitoring helps prevent failure in dams, bridges, and slopes.
Hydrographic Surveys
We perform hydrographic surveys to collect bathymetric data and analyze subsurface conditions for marine, port, and environmental projects.
Subsurface Mapping for Marine Projects
We map underwater terrain for marine and riverside projects.
Environmental Monitoring and Planning
These surveys support fish habitats, erosion studies, and site assessments.
Laser Scanning
Reality capture is a cutting-edge technique that combines the strengths of traditional surveying, laser scanning, and photogrammetry.
This hybrid approach delivers high-accuracy, full-detail digital models that capture not just shape and size—but also texture, geometry, and spatial context—all in a single survey.
Point Cloud Models for As-Built Documentation
We produce high-density point clouds that deliver precise measurements and full 3D context for as-built records, retrofits, and compliance.
Visual Records for Project Tracking
Our laser scans provide repeatable, time-stamped visual data to track progress, verify installations, and detect on-site changes over time.
Cadastral Surveying
We perform legal land surveys to define and document property boundaries, ensuring clarity in ownership and development rights.
Property Boundaries and Legal Land Titles
We establish and mark property boundaries for legal clarity.
Title Research and Land Acquisition
Our team performs title searches and prepares data for acquisition or development.
BOMA & Lease Surveys
We provide precise lease area calculations and space measurements that comply with BOMA standards, helping property owners and tenants navigate commercial leasing with clarity.
Accurate Floor Area Reporting
We deliver clear, standards-based lease measurements.
Delivered to Industry Standards
Reports follow BOMA guidelines and industry best practices.
Topographic Surveys
We produce detailed elevation and contour maps to support engineering design, land development, and infrastructure planning.
Terrain Mapping for Engineering and Development
We create detailed topographic maps for design and engineering.
Permits, Planning, and Site Design
Topographic data supports permit applications and site layouts.
First Nations Surveys
We provide trusted surveying services for Indigenous communities across Canada, supporting land claims, stewardship, and culturally significant historical projects.
Land Claims, Boundaries, and Stewardship
From modern land management under community land codes to historic site verification, we deliver reliable and accurate data that helps communities protect their lands, strengthen their rights, and plan for sustainable growth.
