About The Project

Groma completed a topographic survey for a future rail extension at the Suncor facility in Oakville, ON.  Due to security requirements, photos were not allowed to be taken or shared.

With good weather and virtually no snow cover, Groma completed a mobile scan survey through the property to pick up road features, overhead clearances and ditch elevations.  The existing top of rail was surveyed by hand for increased accuracy.  The resultant mobile scan point cloud was used to create a survey base plan deliverable with all required items and the same accuracy as a conventional survey.

Groma returned after the initial work to provide survey assistance during daylighting within the site limits.  When Suncor’s daylighting crew exposed a pipe or cable, Groma’s field crew surveyed the actual pipe depth for inclusion in the final survey deliverable.
