Projects

Kordil provides surveying, mapping, site investigation and precise positioning services for marine and land projects. Our work covers ports and coastal structures, navigation channels, dredging and excavation, cable and pipeline routes, offshore renewable energy, inland waterways and land-based construction. Depending on project requirements, assignments may range from a few hours of field measurements to construction support and monitoring over several years. Survey methods, equipment and deliverables are selected by considering site conditions, required accuracy and the engineering decisions that the results need to support.

For marine projects, bathymetric surveys define the underwater surface, while sub-bottom profiling, high-resolution seismic investigations, side-scan sonar, magnetometer surveys and sampling help examine conditions on and beneath the seabed. Meteorological and oceanographic measurements, underwater investigations and scour monitoring provide complementary information where required. On land, topographic mapping, mobile and static laser scanning, aerial and terrestrial photogrammetry, and three-dimensional modelling document terrain and structures. Pre- and post-construction surveys, dredging and excavation quantity assessments, volume calculations and change analyses require the comparison surfaces and calculation boundaries to be defined at the outset. Precise positioning systems support operations by tracking the location of a vessel, machine or working tool, while field data are evaluated through the processing, quality control and reporting steps required for the project.

To help us plan your project, please share the site location, approximate survey boundaries, terrain or water conditions, required accuracy, preferred schedule and expected deliverables. Indicate whether you need a baseline survey, construction support, repeat measurements or processing of existing data so that the scope can be defined appropriately. If comparisons with earlier surveys are required, the coordinate reference system, vertical datum and data formats should also be reviewed. The project categories and field photographs below illustrate our areas of work.
