Road and rail surveying

Road and railway survey

What we do

Road and rail surveying

The rail and road networks are the arteries of the Swiss and any economy and thus essential for our daily mobility.

To ensure that this remains the case in the future, these infrastructure structures must be maintained, renewed and expanded. Our teams are trained and experienced to take care of surveying road and rail network without danger. Depending on the requirements and the task at hand, they can use countless different high-tech measuring instruments to obtain the right result at the right time.

The required precision, accuracy and variety for surveying work in the railway sector is very high. On some lines, trains travel at speeds of up to 200 km/h. On the other hand, there are urban networks where the challenge is not the speed, but often the multiple use of the tracks.

In every solution, however, accuracy, quality and especially safety play a key role, whether on the road or on the railway network.

Our offers

Control point networks
Control Point networks
Fixed networks
The basis for every successful, modern construction site is a construction control point network. The adjusted coordinates serve as reference points for total stations, GNSS corrections or form the basis for the machine controlling.
Monitoring measurements

Monitoring measurements
Construction sites that pass through built-up areas require manual or fully automated monitoring systems. Our service ranges from the concept to the installation and operation of the measuring system.

In order to ensure that projects were carried out correctly and as planned both in terms of position and height, we check points and structures at specific points or across entire areas. We then clearly document and flag any discrepancies and support the customer in the analysis.

Rail and Tram surveys
Works on and around the track area tend to be complex and require competent and experienced teams. From determining the position of the Swiss standard control points (GLV) to monitoring, these are routine tasks for our specialists. We not only understand the language of the railway, we also speak it.

Project planning as well as the construction and rehabilitation of road sections are all complex matters. Our 3D modelling and recording form the basis for this. Control readings and setting out during construction guarantee a successful execution.
Tunnelling surveying

Tunnelling surveying
Tunnel surveying takes place in harsh and complex environments, both rail and road, yet requires the highest levels of accuracy and precision. Thanks to our tools and the expertise of our team we can map any tunnelling project and bring it to light.
