South Holland is a residential and commercial community in the far south suburbs with parcels that periodically see redevelopment. Working on already-developed sites requires an accurate reading of the existing grades. A topographic survey records the elevations, utilities and drainage that the design must accommodate.
A topographic survey maps the elevations, contours and natural and man-made features of a site — grades, structures, utilities, trees and drainage — giving architects and engineers the data they need to design accurately and secure permits.
The Pi Surveying process — clear, sealed, and ready for your project.
South Holland has roughly 21,500 residents and lies within Thornton Township in southern Cook County. Its recorded surveys and easement records are maintained by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The village drains toward the Little Calumet River within the Calumet system, where floodplain awareness and stormwater management strongly influence design. Topographic surveys give engineers the elevation and contour data needed to plan grading and detention on these low-lying parcels.

Portions of South Holland lie near the Little Calumet River, where a site’s elevation relative to the floodplain shapes the design. A topographic survey establishes those grades so engineers can plan accordingly.
Contours, spot elevations, structures, pavement, visible utilities and drainage features, prepared in CAD for design and permitting.
Yes, grading plans are built from measured elevations, so a topographic survey is usually completed first.
