Palos Heights sits amid the wooded terrain of the Palos region, giving many of its residential lots real grade variation. Building on sloped or rolling ground makes elevation accuracy essential. A topographic survey captures those contours, features and drainage so the design works with the land.
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.
Palos Heights counts about 12,100 residents across the Worth and Palos townships in southwest Cook County. Recorded plats and easement documents for the city are held by the Cook County Clerk’s Recordings Division. The area drains toward the Calumet River system through varied terrain, so grading and drainage design depend heavily on precise elevation work. Topographic surveys provide engineers the contour data needed to plan siting and runoff control on the community’s often sloping parcels.
