What kinds of projects has Monument Geomatics worked on?

Updated

Monument Geomatics has published examples of work spanning cycle-track design, golf-course work, heritage buildings and highway junction design. The named projects on its site are a topographical survey for a new pump track at the Forest of Dean Cycle Centre, work for Monmouth Golf Club, work at Royal Crescent in Bath, and highway junction design in Brighton. These examples show the range of scales and sectors the firm handles, but they are a sample of recent work rather than a complete project list.

The named projects

Project Location What it suggests about their work
Topographical survey for a new pump track, Forest of Dean Cycle Centre Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire Small-to-medium site survey supporting the design of a new leisure facility
Monmouth Golf Club Monmouth Survey work for a sports and leisure site
Royal Crescent Bath Work involving a well-known heritage building and its setting
Highway Junction Design Brighton Engineering survey input for road and junction design

The site does not publish detailed scope, deliverables or dates for each project, so treat the table as a guide to the types of work rather than a specification of what was delivered.

What the project mix tells you

The four examples fall into recognisable categories:

  • Leisure and community facilities – the pump track and golf club work show experience with sites where design, levels and existing features matter.
  • Heritage and measured building work – Royal Crescent points to building-related surveying, consistent with the firm's measured building survey service covering floorplans and elevations.
  • Highways and engineering – the Brighton junction project aligns with its engineering survey offering and its stated use of surveys in highways design.

If your project resembles one of these, the examples are a reasonable starting point for a conversation. If your project is in a different sector, the broader service list is a better guide than the four case studies.

The techniques behind the projects

Monument Geomatics says it draws on remote sensing, terrestrial laser scanning, geodesy and GPS, 3D visualisation, high-precision deformation monitoring, small inland hydrography and large-scale topographical mapping. In practice, this means a project can be approached with more than one method — for example, laser scanning for a complex building interior and GPS-based control for an open site.

The firm describes its output as surveys that "bring insight and added value" to land development, highways design, recreating structural plans and asset management. That framing is useful when judging fit: if your need is a one-off boundary plan rather than design or asset data, ask directly whether it is something they take on.

How to judge suitability for your project

Use the published examples as a prompt rather than proof. A practical sequence:

  1. Identify which example is closest to your project in type and scale.
  2. Check the relevant service page — topographical, measured building, laser scanning, underground utility or engineering survey.
  3. When you contact them, ask for a comparable project reference and what was actually delivered (drawings, point cloud, report, model).
  4. Confirm coverage: the firm is based in Gloucestershire and serves Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Wales and the South West, with local and national markets mentioned.

A common pitfall is assuming a named project included a service you need. For instance, a topographical survey for a pump track may not have involved underground utility tracing, even though that is a separate listed service. Ask about the specific deliverable rather than the project name.

Where to look next

The "Recent projects" section of monumentgeomatics.co.uk is the primary source for case examples, and each listed project has a "Learn more" link. The services pages give the fuller picture of what can be commissioned. For a project outside the named examples, the service list and the areas-covered statement are the more reliable basis for deciding whether to get in touch.
