National Grid Coordinates
N D Oliver & Co Ltd, Chartered Land Surveyors, are experts in the collection, organisation, presentation and delivery of spatial data. The quality of our survey data presentation is a key factor in explaining why over 80% of our work is repeat business. Our clients get what they need and they keep coming back for more.
Increasingly, clients are requesting that their survey is based on National Grid Coordinates with OS Benchmark related levels.
