Engineering Survey
When clients require highly accurate spatial information for construction, transportation, and infrastructure projects, they engage companies like Monarch. We have the resources to plan, design, and assist in constructing such engineered projects. By ensuring that these are built safely, efficiently, and according to the intended design, Monarch delivers structures that meet the design specifications.

Our engineering survey service captures every physical and environmental detail a project team needs before breaking ground. Monarch owns various survey hardware, such as multiple GEDO trolleys, MX-9 vans, fixed wing LiDAR rigs, drone fleets, and a dedicated CORS hub. Our experienced crew can be mobilized within days, not weeks. Moreover, multidisciplinary analysts work closely with surveyors to ensure that QC loops (dual pass LiDAR, closed traverses, independent check shots) are delivered properly. Our systems deliver ± 3 cm vertical accuracy even under dense canopy and foliage. As a result, design engineers and contractors trust that the 'as designed' documentation accurately reflects what is built, thus saving time and money throughout the project lifecycle."
We establish high accuracy control, map terrain and built assets, record utilities, traffic, and cadastral boundaries. Then we hand over DEM/DTM surfaces, plan-profiles, 3-D CAD, GIS, and BIM layers. These unified datasets feed alignment optimization, earthwork volumes, safety audits, and digital twin dashboards removing guesswork and costly rework throughout the project lifecycle.
Engineering surveys add value to:
Rail & Metro – New lines, Track Tamping, Yard remodelling
Highways & Expressways – Green-field corridors, Widening, RSA audits
Urban Development – ELU/GIS base-maps, Utility overhaul, Complete streets
Power & Energy – Transmission corridors, Solar Parks, Hydro Schemes
Industrial & Mining – Plant master plans, Conveyor and Pipeline routes
Water & Coastal – River-basin modelling, Anti-sea-erosion works
Real Estate & Smart Cities – Parcel mapping, Facility-management twins
Technical systems we deploy:
Aircraft LiDAR (RIEGL VQ-1560i) for long corridor mapping
Drone LiDAR – Zenmuse L1 on DJI M300 RTK for ≤ 7 cm GSD
MX-9 mobile mapper for dense road point-clouds & 360° imagery
Trimble GEDO CE 2.0 trolley for high-speed track geometry checks
SX-12 terrestrial scanner for bridges, yards & station interiors
Dual-frequency GNSS (Leica GS18 / Trimble R12i) tied to our CORS network
Robotic total stations & AI traffic cameras for congested urban pick-ups
Processing stack – Trimble Business Center, Bentley OpenRoads/OpenRail, Autodesk Civil 3D, ArcGIS/QGIS
Select projects:
Nagpur – Gondia Green-field Expressway (150 km, MSRDC) – fixed-wing LiDAR, DGPS control, hydraulic & utility surveys supporting DPR and land acquisition.
Narkhed – Kalambha Track Tamping (12 km, Central Railway) – GEDO trolley pre/post-tamping surveys; alignment data fed directly to tamping machines, improving ride quality.
