Scope of Work

What This Service Covers

We draft existing-ground contour plans from supplied point and breakline data, prepare DTM/DEM surface drawings, draw proposed grading linework from your design information, produce spot elevation plans, and assemble cut-fill and earthwork exhibits from the calculations your office supplies.

GeoDrafts provides drafting production only. Grading design, engineering judgment, and certification remain with the licensed professionals responsible for the project.
