Precision on Every Project

Accurate data is the foundation of every successful project. River City Consultants’ surveying team knows the terrain of Western Colorado inside and out, combining state-of-the-art technology with on-the-ground expertise. From boundary and topographic surveys to construction staking and utility location, we provide the reliable information that drives confident decisions, efficient designs, and successful builds.

Data You Can 
Build On

We support public and private projects with precise surveying services tailored to local conditions. Our team integrates state of the art GPS, GIS, and traditional surveying methods to capture accurate, actionable data. Whether for property boundaries, infrastructure, or construction, our surveys ensure every project begins with a trusted foundation.

Boundary
Surveys

Before you build, buy, or subdivide, you need to know exactly where the lines are. We provide improvement surveys, improvement location certificates, property line surveys, partial surveys, and easement location surveys.

Construction
Staking

We stake everything from large-scale commercial sites to residential lots, using the latest GPS and layout software to hit your accuracy and budget targets.

Geodetic and Cadastral Surveying

Our team brings deep experience working within the Public Land Survey System (PLSS), which is critical for projects involving federal or state land, mineral rights, or complex boundary questions in the West.

Topographic & Aerial Surveys

Custom topographic and aerial surveys give your design team the accurate ground data they need to start engineering with confidence.

ALTA/NSPS Land 
Title Surveys

We prepare Land Title Surveys that meet American Land Title Association (ALTA) and National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS) standards, giving project stakeholders the documentation they need to move transactions forward.
