ABA surveying is a leading independent company of chartered land surveyors serving the UK and Ireland. Our core business is land and engineering surveying for civil engineering, architectural, development and asset management purposes. Our goal is bringing our clients the benefit of new technology by offering the most appropriate solution to their data requirements. Highly automated, the company operates digital levels, robotic total stations, total stations with non-contact capability, RTK geodetic GPS receivers and two Leica Cyrax 3D scanners for non-contact survey and modelling.

We are leading exponents in the development of 3D scanning techniques for surveying purposes. The company has operated two scanners for more than three years and has developed sophisticated 3D survey and CAD modelling techniques. We provide surveying solutions satisfying topographical survey, asset management, deformation measurement, dimensional control and spatial engineering requirements to accuracies of less than 5mm.

Much of our work is in the railway environment where we can survey track, structures, stations, platforms and OLE to 5mm accuracies – all from a place of safety. Started in 1990, the practice has continued to grow through its success and now employs over 30 people and has a turnover approaching £2m per year.
