this survey was carried out to alter the boundaries of existing lots through subdivision and consolidation and involved a number of municipal subdivision by-law requirements.

Boundary Surveys

TPC Desktop has the tools to help you with deed research, finding monuments and projecting locations, computing your control points and side shots. and when you’re ready, you can move easily from a control survey to a topo or site survey.

Site Surveys

Sometimes, your surveys end up being a little bit of everything on site. Like shore lines, rock walls, driveways, vegetation, buildings, and you name it. TPC Desktop’s Point Codes turn your field data into your map.

Construction Surveys

You’ll find all the tools to compute offsets, setbacks, points on line and pretty much anything else you need. TPC Desktop even has tools to check linework from CAD drawings so that each line starts right where the last one ended. And we makes it easy to convert grid to ground and export just the points you want to your data collector, total station or GPS.

Public Lands Survey System (PLSS) Surveys

TPC Desktop features PLSS with ground distance and true bearing via the 2009 BLM Manual of Survey. We’re the only ones who do it that way from start to finish. That means better data, so there are no apparent misclosures when you close a section.

TPC Desktop is not just powerful software that is easy to use. It’s also extremely versatile – because its not designed to be constraining to the user. Instead we developed TPC Desktop to work the way that you prefer, offering multiple ways, or Views as we call them, to produce your deliverables. You learn two or three of the many Views and you’ve learned the software. Over the years this has resulted in clients that use TPC Desktop in countless applications and industries. Here is just sampling of what our clients have used our software for:

Land Surveyors, CFedS, PLSS

Architects, Engineers, Mining, Construction

Municipalities, Landscape, Septic, Agriculture

Developers, Planners, Assessors, Legal
