Surveying & 3D Scanning in Davis

Davis is the most populous city in Yolo County and sits on the flat floor of the Sacramento Valley. On ground this level, drainage and finished-floor decisions come down to small elevation differences across a whole lot, so topographic surveys for additions, ADUs, and site improvements need tight elevations on control rather than a few spot grades. The older core has its own layer of rules: the city's design guidelines cover a Conservation District taking in downtown and the older neighborhoods around it. Boundary and existing-conditions work in that area often starts from early maps and lots that have been split and rebuilt over a century.

The University of California, Davis, at 5,300 acres the largest campus by land area in the UC system, shapes the rest of the city's building stock, from research and teaching facilities to the housing and commercial space that serve them. For renovation and tenant work on existing buildings we provide 3D laser scanning tied to survey control, delivering registered point clouds, scan-to-CAD plans, sections, elevations, and floor deviation maps. Interstate 80 crosses the Yolo Bypass to West Sacramento on the Yolo Causeway, and Amtrak still stops at the 1913 Southern Pacific depot downtown.
