Land Surveyor in Grass Valley

Grass Valley sits at about 2,500 feet in the Nevada County foothills, on ground shaped by more than a century of hard-rock mining. Property here ranges from tight downtown lots on hilly streets to wooded rural acreage with long, poorly marked lines, private roads, and old easements. Boundary surveys often mean reconciling historic records with what is on the ground, and topographic surveys have to pick up steep slopes, trees, drainage, and rock for septic, grading, and building design.

The city's 19th-century commercial buildings and mine-era stone structures are also strong candidates for 3D laser scanning. We document them as registered point clouds with scan-to-CAD plans, sections, and elevations for renovation and preservation teams, and scan older office and light-industrial buildings before reuse. Grass Valley is a longer trip from our Lotus office, so we plan Nevada County work as full field days.
