Forest View is a very small southwest village of homes and industrial parcels tucked along the Stevenson corridor near the Des Plaines valley. Site work and additions here account for low ground and nearby waterways. A topographic survey supplies the elevation data engineers use for drainage.
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.
Forest View is home to under 1,000 residents and is coextensive with a portion of Stickney Township in southwest Cook County. Its deeds are recorded through the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The village sits near the Des Plaines River corridor within the Chicago and Des Plaines drainage system, where mapped FEMA Special Flood Hazard Areas can affect low-lying parcels. A topographic survey documenting existing elevations, flow paths and features on a Forest View lot gives the design team the basis for grading and building placement.

With the Des Plaines corridor nearby and possible mapped flood hazard areas, a topographic survey’s elevations help engineers design grading and drainage that manage water.
