Equipment rental with operator

Sometimes a company has no surveyor of its own, the staff surveyor is busy elsewhere, or there is no time to learn a new instrument. Then renting equipment with an experienced operator is the fastest solution: the instrument and the person who knows it arrive on your site together.

In this format a GNSS RTK receiver, total station, level or 3D laser scanner comes with an experienced surveyor-operator. The operator sets up the instrument, ties in to control points, carries out the measurements you need — setting out gridlines, as-built surveys, transferring levels, scanning — and hands over results in the agreed format (coordinate list, DXF, point cloud). Accuracy matches the instrument used: ±1–2 cm with GNSS RTK, 1"–2" with a total station, ±0.3–1.5 mm/km with a level and ±2–6 mm with a laser scanner.

The service is arranged by shift, by day or for a whole project, matched to your construction schedule, so contractors get survey control without adding staff.

Please note that this is equipment rental with an operator. Full engineering surveys that require a licence, such as a topographic plan with a report, are ordered as a separate service. Terms and documents are set by agreement.
