Hawthorn Woods is a low-density village of large, wooded lots and rolling ground. Building or expanding on that generous terrain makes accurate elevation data valuable, and a topographic survey supplies it. Contours and grades captured early let a design handle the slopes, trees and drainage across a wide parcel.
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.
Hawthorn Woods has a population near 9,000 and spans the Ela and Fremont townships in Lake County. Its records are filed through the Recording Division of the Lake County Clerk’s Office, and the county seat is Waukegan. The village sits in the Des Plaines River watershed, where wetlands and FEMA flood limits affect some lower-lying parcels. For custom homes and additions on Hawthorn Woods’ large, wooded lots, a topo documents existing grades and trees so runoff is guided away from structures and toward a legal outfall.
Wide, wooded parcels carry meaningful grade changes, and a topo captures them so grading and drainage can control where water flows.
Contours, spot elevations, existing structures and pavement, visible utilities, significant trees and surface drainage patterns.
No; one maps the land’s shape and features while the other establishes property lines, and large-lot projects often need both.
