What a topographic survey shows

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.

Harvard & McHenry County specifics

Chemung Township contains the city within McHenry County, in flat-to-gently-rolling farmland within the Kishwaukee River watershed. New construction and site improvements rely on contour and elevation data for grading and stormwater design. Where field drainage and creeks cross parcels, topographic mapping supports drainage planning. Deeds are recorded with the McHenry County Recorder in the county seat of Woodstock. Delivered in CAD, a topographic survey gives Harvard’s designers an accurate model of the existing terrain.
