Geomatics Services for Earthmoving & Civils Contractors

RBC Geomatics provides precision-led geomatics services for the civils and earthworks sector. Remotely delivered, accurate and straightforward to work with.

Core services

What we specialise in.

01

Earthwork Take-Offs

Accurate take-offs. Fewer surprises on site.

Good earthworks planning starts with good data. We produce precise cut-and-fill volume calculations and detailed earthworks models from survey data and design drawings, giving you everything you need to plan resources, price accurately and keep the project moving. Delivered remotely, straight to your inbox.

Take-offs are particularly valuable at tender stage, giving both clients and contractors the accurate volume data they need to price jobs with confidence.

  • Detailed volume calculations for confident planning and pricing
  • Optimise equipment use and resource allocation from the outset
  • Reduce fuel, labour and material costs through accurate forecasting
  • Support better decision-making and reduce waste across the project
02

Volumetric Calculations

Know your volumes. Control your costs.

Whether you're managing stockpiles on a busy earthmoving site or reconciling cut-and-fill across a civil engineering project, accurate volumetric data is essential. We provide reliable volume calculations from survey data, giving contractors and project teams a clear picture of material movement, storage and variance against design. Fast turnaround and no site visit required.

  • Stockpile volume measurement for accurate materials tracking and reporting
  • Cut-and-fill reconciliation to identify variance and control costs
  • Ongoing monitoring to track material movement across project stages
  • Clear, usable outputs that integrate directly into your project workflow
03

3D Model Creation

See the full picture before work begins.

A detailed 3D model of your site gives everyone from project managers to machine operators, a shared understanding of existing terrain and planned changes. We build accurate surface and terrain models from survey data that support better design decisions, clearer stakeholder communication and direct integration with machine control systems, for precise excavation and grading.

Machine Control File Creation

We create bespoke 3D machine control files compatible with the three major geospatial technology platforms: Trimble, Leica, and Topcon. Files are formatted to work directly with each system's on-board technology, giving machine operators precise guidance for excavation and grading without the need for manual setting out.

We also work with each platform's cloud-based project management software, including Trimble's Works Manager, enabling designs to be uploaded, updated and accessed by site teams anywhere in the world. Whether your machinery is operating on a site in the UK or on a project overseas, your team gets the right data at the right time.

  • Clear visual representation of existing terrain and proposed works
  • Improved communication between project teams and stakeholders
  • Early identification of design issues before they reach site
  • Bespoke machine control files for Trimble, Leica, and Topcon systems
  • Cloud-based design distribution via Works Manager and equivalent platforms
  • Compatible with remote project delivery anywhere in the world
