Desktop Studies on Feasibility
A desk top study is a key element of early planning and engineering of any marine project. The study will gather and analyse existing data from public domain, scientific and commercial databases, and available project sources. Outputs will advise on enviromental considerations, define engineering survey needs, assist in obtaining permits and consents, EIA activities, and construction planning enabling an integrated approach. Most significantly, the study will identify risks and opportunities at an early stage prior to commitment of costly resources.Geometra has experience in every stage of project development from site identification and cable route planning through installation and services to decommissioning. Final results are reported with the aid of GIS and CAD software and could be presented in most common file formats via CD, DVD or by web download alongside with the hardcopy.

Site Reconnaissance & Determination Of Control Requirement
A detailed reconnaisance covering a proposed project area is an essential means of ensuring surveys are carried out in the most expeditious manner. The site reconnaissance should ideally be completed before the survey is started. The reconnaissance surveyor will prepare a site sketches and descriptions of all salient information so that those following can progress with their work with least possible disruption.
