Prospect Heights blends residential neighborhoods with commercial parcels along its corridors, and redevelopment activity continues on both. Reworking developed land calls for an accurate reading of existing grades. A topographic survey records the elevations, utilities and drainage that the design will build around.
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.
Prospect Heights has roughly 16,100 residents across the Wheeling and Northfield townships in northern Cook County. Its recorded surveys and easement records are filed with the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The city lies within the Des Plaines River drainage, where grading and stormwater management often influence project design. Topographic surveys give engineers the contour and elevation data needed to control runoff on redevelopment and infill sites here.
Official resources for Prospect Heights property owners
A commercial project in Prospect Heights generally requires one, since the site plan must work with existing grades and drainage. The survey documents those conditions for design.
Contours, spot elevations, structures, pavement, visible utilities, trees and drainage patterns, prepared in CAD.
Because the engineer designs grading and drainage from measured elevations, the topographic survey is usually completed first.
