Harvey is a south-suburban industrial city with older housing stock, manufacturing sites and rail infrastructure along the Little Calumet lowlands. Redevelopment and site reuse here frequently begin with a topographic survey to record existing grades and drainage. That data lets engineers design new construction on long-established parcels.
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.
Harvey has roughly 20,000 residents and spans the Thornton and Bremen townships in southern Cook County. Property records are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The city lies within the Calumet River system near the Little Calumet, where mapped FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas make drainage design a routine concern. A topographic survey documenting existing elevations, structures and drainage flow on a Harvey parcel provides the basis for grading, detention and building placement in redevelopment.

Reusing an industrial or older parcel requires knowing its grades and drainage, and near the Little Calumet a topographic survey supplies the elevations engineers need to design and permit the work.
Elevations and contour lines plus structures, pavement, trees and visible utility features, delivered in CAD.
The boundary survey fixes property lines; the topographic survey describes the surface by elevation and feature, and both are often required together.
