Air Transport

Surveying Services for Air Transport and Aviation Infrastructure, Supporting safe, compliant and efficient delivery across airports and airside facilities.

Surveying Support for Airfields, Terminals and Aviation Assets

Air transport environments demand precision and planning – where safety, access, and security are paramount. Whether you’re working on runway upgrades, terminal refurbishments or airside infrastructure, reliable survey data underpins successful delivery.

Survey Solutions provides tailored surveys for aviation projects, supporting asset owners, consultants and contractors working in complex, operational airport environments.

Why do Accurate Surveys Matter in Air Transport Projects?

Airports and Aviation facilities present unique challenges – from live operational areas and access restrictions to complex underground services. Accurate surveys help you:

• Reduce project risk and avoid service disruptions
• Safely manage works in airside and restricted zones
• Support design, refurbishment and compliance with aviation standards
• Coordinate complex utilities and structural elements
• Provide BIM-ready deliverables to streamline design and management

Tailored Surveying Services for Airports and Aviation Sites

Our survey teams are experienced in delivering high-accuracy surveys in live airport environments, with services that include:

Topographic and Land Surveys

• Capture terminal layouts, airside features, runways and car parks
• Establish control networks aligned to site grids and aviation coordinates

Utility Mapping and Buried Services Surveys

• Locate internal and external services, including those beneath airside surfaces
• Use GPR and EML techniques, aligned to PAS 128 standards

Measured Building Surveys and Laser Scanning

• Provide detailed internal and external data for terminal buildings and aviation facilities
• Scan above-ceiling voids and restricted areas with safe access methodologies

Structural Monitoring

• Track movements in slabs, walls and structural frames during works
• Maintain safety across critical airport infrastructure

Digital Twins and BIM Models

• Provide LOD 300 models compatible with Revit and AutoCAD
• Integrate topographical, utility and building data into a unified model
