Send us your master file and we draft the plan. Send us a plan PDF and we return a LandXML file for lodgement. You decide the boundary. We draft it.
Created and run by a registered surveyor: David Armstrong, Registered Land Surveyor (NSW) No. 8909
While we're starting out, both services are $5 a plan. Prices are in Australian dollars.
Send a CAD-plotted plan PDF and get back a LandXML file ready to lodge with it, run through the NSW LRS validation service first. One resubmission is included if the validator flags something on the plan; further resubmissions are $5 each. Back within two business days.
Convert a planSend your processed master file and searches and we draft the plan in your style: strata, deposited plans, detail surveys, survey sketches and setouts. DXF back, with LandXML for plans you're lodging. We'll confirm turnaround when your job arrives.
Send a drafting jobDrag your files in: the plan PDF, or the master file, title search and any field notes. No account needed.
Every plan is checked against the NSW regulations and standards that apply to it. LandXML goes through the LRS validation service.
You get the files and a short report of anything to look at. You check them, certify and lodge as usual.
Registered Land Surveyor (NSW) No. 8909. I started The Survey Drafting Bureau to give small practices the drafting help that bigger firms have in-house, and to make the move to digital plans painless.
The work is done with purpose-built drafting software I've developed, and every plan is checked against the NSW regulations and standards that apply to it. You stay in charge of the survey: the boundary decisions, the certification and the lodgement are yours.
No. You do. We draft from your processed master file and your adopted boundary, and flag anything that doesn't agree.
You are. The files we return are drafting aids. The certifying surveyor checks them before use or lodgement, and certifies and lodges the plan as usual. You'll be asked to confirm this when you send a job.
CAD-plotted plan PDFs work best, including multi-sheet plans. Scanned or hand-lettered plans may take longer. If we can't convert a plan, we'll tell you and you won't pay.
If our conversion is wrong, we fix it free. If the validator flags something on the plan itself, such as a rounded SCIMS value, we tell you exactly what and where. One resubmission is included; after that it's $5 each.
A card payment link comes with your files. If you send work regularly, ask for an account and we'll invoice monthly for payment by bank transfer.
Plans are treated as confidential until registered, used only for your job, and deleted 30 days after the job is complete. See the privacy policy.
It's introductory pricing while we start out. Most of the work is done by our own software, so it costs us little, and we'd rather you try it. Prices may change later; we'll always tell you before you send a job.
