Unlocking Gold Standard Safety with 40+ Years of Land Surveyor Expertise

Welcome to SPATIAL DATA SERVICES Ltd, where safety meets innovation.

At Spatial Data Services, we combine cutting-edge drone technology with over 40 years of experience in engineering and construction surveying. Backed by a 100% Gold Safety Rating, we’re your trusted partner for safe, efficient, and accurate land survey solutions across New Zealand.

Revolutionizing Mapping with Technology

We’re not just speeding up surveys — we’re transforming how construction is delivered.

With Spatial Data Services, you can eliminate the need for stakes in the ground. We deliver digital 3D models for machine control, meaning excavators, dozers, and graders can work from accurate terrain surfaces without relying on traditional set-out.

Need earthworks quantities? There’s no need to walk the site. Our drone surveys capture the entire surface in minutes, producing precise terrain models that support cut/fill calculations, progress reporting, and validation—all from the air.

From first ground break to final QA, we provide a fully digital, fully spatial workflow that’s safer, faster, and far more efficient than legacy methods.

Why Choose Spatial Data Services?

Gold Standard Safety

We maintain a 100% Gold Safety Rating, with strict compliance to CAA, WorkSafe NZ, and site-specific safety requirements. Our procedures are built on industry best practices, so you can trust us to work safely in any environment—from landfills to live construction sites.

Decades of Expertise

With over 40 years of surveying and construction experience, our team understands the demands of complex projects. We speak the same language as engineers, contractors, and project managers—delivering practical solutions that get results on the ground.

Smarter, Cost-Effective Solutions

We reduce boots on the ground and speed up every step of your workflow. Our drone mapping and spatial modelling services cut time and costs—while improving accuracy and reducing rework.

Fully Digital Construction Workflows

We create survey-grade 3D CAD linework and machine control models directly from drone data. Our lightweight outputs overlay perfectly on orthophotos and integrate seamlessly into your design, construction, or GIS environment. No more pegs. No more guesswork.

Measurable Change Over Time

Need to track site progress or check compliance? We compare current surveys with historical drone imagery or LiDAR datasets to detect changes in surface, volume, or layout—ideal for QA, billing, or monitoring environmental impact.

What We Offer

Safety-First Operations
Fully compliant with aviation and workplace safety standards. Our drone and survey procedures are documented, repeatable, and trusted across high-risk industries.
High-Speed Drone Mapping
Rapid and accurate terrain capture using drones and GNSS control. Ideal for bulk earthworks, subdivisions, landfills, and infrastructure corridors.
3D Models for Machine Control
Accurate terrain and design surfaces optimised for GPS-guided plant and equipment. Used in grading, excavation, roading, drainage, and more.
Progress Validation & Quantities
We fly the site to validate work completed, monitor progress, and calculate earthwork volumes. We provide clear reporting and data you can trust.
Integrated Spatial Data Services
We specialise in spatial data, from raw drone imagery to CAD-ready models, change detection, and GIS and BIM integration. If it moves, we can map it.
