Why surveying is so crucial while building wind power?
Wind farms are one of the most important investments in the renewable energy sources’ sector. The most meaningful element in its realisation is precise survey service, guaranteeing that the project will be done in compliance with technical and law requirements. The surveyors play a key role even on the wind powers’ planning stage. Thanks to the proper surveys it is possible to describe the best location for every wind turbine, reflecting on aspects like shape of the ground, distance between the existing buildings and access to the essential infrastructure. Precise surveys are also the basis for the following monitoring of the construction progress and creating as-build documentation. Inappropriate surveys or lack of them could cause measurement errors which could generate additional costs and delays during the investment realisation.
Our survey services for wind farms
Location
The choice of the relevant location for the wind power is one of the most valid stages of the whole investment process. Our surveying company analyses the terrain in details. It covers:
analyse the shape of the ground- thanks to precise surveys we can define which areas are the best for the wind turbines installation
infrastructure access- we will check the existing infrastructure and the possibilities to connect wind farm to the power grid.
Survey service in wind farms
During the construction works our company offers complex service which includes:
stack out access roads – accurate stack out the arterial routes ensuring the access to each turbine
stack out foundations under the turbines – precise stack out the places where the wind turbines will be installed
stack out cables – cable route surveys connecting individual turbines with energetic infrastructure.
Our surveys are made with the highest precision, that allows to avoid the measurement errors and ensures the consistency between realisation and the project.
As-built surveys and the geodetic documentation
After the end of the construction works for the wind farm, the crucial stage is to do as-built survey and the complete documentation. Our company in this range offers:
as-built surveys – during the as-built survey we check if every construction element and infrastructures has been installed accordingly to a plan
as-built documentation – we prepare detailed reports that are necessary to receive the final investment commissioning by the construction supervision and the operators of the power grid.
submissions to the adequate offices- we assert the full support amid the reporting documentation process to the appropriate administration centres.
Modern equipment and experienced professionals- key to the success
Our company uses state-of-the-art survey equipment that allows us to do precise and quick survey results. We use:
drones – to create detailed orthophotomaps and terrain models
GPS RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) – ensuring the highest survey accuracy
3D scanners- enable fast and precise scanning of the objects and areas
LiDAR – allows to make point cloud, which can receive adequate spatial representation
Naszym największym atutem jest jednak zespół doświadczonych fachowców, którzy posiadają wieloletnie doświadczenie w obsłudze dużych projektów infrastrukturalnych. Dzięki temu jesteśmy w stanie zapewnić najwyższą jakość usług oraz terminową realizację prac geodezyjnych.
