CORS Survey
- Survey, GIS & geospatial
- Remote • Hybrid • Onsite
- Indicative: $250 – $1,300
Whether the site is a single plot or a long corridor, CORS Survey turns field measurements into drawings and datasets your team can use. CORS/GNSS survey and geospatial support.
What CORS Survey covers
- Field capture using total stations, GNSS/DGPS receivers, levels or drone sensors, selected to suit the terrain, accuracy target and budget.
- Processing and checks: traverse closure, residual review, point-cloud filtering and cross-checks against known site features.
- Mapping outputs such as contour plans, spot levels, feature maps and cross-sections prepared for design use.
- Digital data organised with consistent layers, coordinate systems and metadata for CAD and GIS platforms.
- Site notes covering access limits, vegetation, utilities and permissions that can affect accuracy or schedule.
- Volume and quantity outputs where earthwork, stockpile or cut-and-fill estimates are required.
How CORS Survey works
- Brief and scope. We confirm the area, purpose, accuracy target, coordinate system and deliverable formats, and agree what is included before fieldwork starts.
- Planning and permissions. We plan control points, equipment and access, and identify any landowner, security or aviation permissions needed.
- Field acquisition. Survey crews capture the data on site with calibrated instruments and keep field notes for traceability.
- Processing and quality checks. Data is processed, adjusted and checked against control, then compiled into drawings and datasets.
- Delivery and review. You receive the files with a short method note, and we walk your team through the data and fix any agreed corrections.
Deliverables
- CAD drawings (DWG/DXF) and PDF plots
- Coordinate and level lists (CSV)
- GIS layers such as shapefile or GeoPackage where relevant
- Contour, spot-level and cross-section drawings
- Point cloud or surface model when scoped

CORS Survey: frequently asked questions
How much does CORS Survey cost?
PMCEPC publishes an indicative rate of $250 – $1,300 for CORS Survey. The final fee depends on scope, location, complexity, deliverables and timeline, and is confirmed in a written quotation before work starts.
Are permissions needed for field work?
Often yes. Landowner access, site security and, for drones, local aviation rules apply. In India, for example, drone operations must follow the Drone Rules, 2021. We identify what is needed during planning.
What accuracy can I expect from CORS Survey?
Accuracy depends on the method, equipment, terrain and control available. GNSS/RTK control work can reach centimetre-level results under good conditions, while drone mapping depends on ground control and flight design. We agree tolerances in writing before fieldwork and report what was achieved.
Can CORS Survey be delivered remotely or onsite?
PMCEPC delivers remotely, in hybrid mode or onsite depending on the assignment. Desk work such as review, analysis, drafting and reporting is usually remote, while site measurement, inspection and meetings are arranged onsite where location and permissions allow. Travel and living costs are quoted separately.
