Energy, Solar, BESS & Transmission

Survey data built for energy sites and transmission corridors.

For utilities, developers, EPC teams, and engineers, the survey has to do more than document the ground. It has to keep property, terrain, control, structures, and construction information aligned with the way the project is being designed and built.

Eagle combines Texas land surveying with Aerial LiDAR Mapping and Reality Capture for large sites, long corridors, easements, structure layout, and final records.

What the project team needs

The survey package has to work for the land team, the engineer, and the field.

Transmission and energy work can involve land, electrical, civil, construction, and operations teams with different requirements. Defining what each team needs from the survey before crews or aircraft mobilize helps keep property, mapping, control, and construction data coordinated from the start.

Property & Right-of-Way

Boundary research, existing easements, proposed easement exhibits and legal descriptions, parcel relationships, and route limits that can support acquisition and design.

Terrain & Corridor Conditions

Topographic Survey and Aerial LiDAR Mapping for ground surface, drainage, vegetation, structures, access, and the existing conditions required by the engineering scope.

Engineering-Ready Control

Coordinate system, datum, corridor width, feature requirements, LiDAR classification, and deliverable formats agreed before mobilization so the data fits the design workflow.

Construction & Record Support

Construction Staking from approved plans, field work tied to current design information, and As-Built Survey documentation for installed improvements and closeout.

Survey + Reality Capture

Long corridors and large energy sites rarely need one collection method.

Aerial LiDAR can cover broad terrain, vegetation, structures, and long alignments efficiently. Ground survey remains essential for control, boundary and easement work, targeted measurements, and staking. Eagle can coordinate both within one project scope so the datasets share the same project basis.

How Eagle fits the assignment

Start with the deliverable. Build the collection plan around it.

The goal is a clear survey scope tied to the project's actual design, right-of-way, construction, and record requirements.

Scope Before MobilizationConfirm alignment or site limits, corridor width, access, control requirements, features, classifications, file formats, and schedule before collection begins.
Survey + RC in One TeamLicensed property and easement work can be coordinated with aerial mapping, point clouds, topographic data, and targeted ground measurements instead of being managed as unrelated scopes.
Current Design Drives Field WorkConstruction layout and later verification are tied to the approved information supplied by the project team, with revisions coordinated before the next field mobilization.
Built for Texas MobilizationEagle supports large surveying assignments statewide from Denton and Waco, with select Reality Capture assignments supported nationwide depending on scope and mobilization.
Project Scoping FAQs

Questions worth answering before the survey scope is locked.

These are the details that most directly affect collection strategy, property work, deliverables, and field mobilization on energy and transmission assignments.
