They can still be a good fit, but the collection method has to match the site conditions. Limited access may call for a ground-based survey, a combined workflow, or additional planning to capture the needed features safely and completely. The best approach depends on the parcel, the deliverables, and any access restrictions.
The most common mistakes are unclear scope, missing control, incomplete feature capture, and deliverables that do not match the designer’s workflow. A survey can also fall short if the project does not define whether contours, spot elevations, point clouds, or CAD-ready files are needed. Clear expectations up front help avoid those problems.
Timing depends on site size, access, weather, travel, and the level of detail required. Some projects can be collected quickly, while others need more planning and processing before final deliverables are ready. AMI reviews the scope first so the schedule is based on the actual project, not a generic estimate.
Yes, project deliverables can often be prepared for CAD, GIS, or BIM use depending on the scope and requested output. That may include contours, surface models, point clouds, maps, or structured datasets. The file format should be discussed at the start so the final package fits the next professional’s workflow.
