CEMETERY MAPPING

Our cemetery mapping services provide accurate and reliable grave mapping solutions across the United States. Using modern GPS cemetery mapping tools, we help locate, map, and preserve burial sites nationwide in historic cemeteries, municipal graveyards, and private burial grounds.

Our team uses high-precision Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) GPS for cemetery mapping projects when applicable, allowing us to achieve centimeter-level accuracy in locating and recording grave sites and burial plots. This advanced method is ideal for projects requiring detailed cemetery maps and enhances cemetery management and historical preservation efforts. For projects where RTK is not feasible, we will employ alternative methods to create your map. Contact our team today to see how we can create your map.

Frequently asked questions

How long will it be before I get the map once the field work is completed?

Most maps are delivered within two to three weeks after field work, depending on project size and deliverable type.

Is this work non-invasive?

Yes. Our mapping process is completely non-invasive and performed using above-ground survey equipment only.

Will this map be a professional survey?

No. The map is not a certified land survey but provides highly accurate location data suitable for documentation and recordkeeping.

How would your map be better compared to the other company’s maps?

We use robotic total stations, RTK GPS, and GIS technology to produce detailed, cartography-style maps that are both precise and visually clear.

How long does it take to complete the field work?

Most field work is completed within one to three days, depending on the cemetery’s size and accessibility.

Does the area need to be cleared to complete this work?

We recommend clearing excessive vegetation or debris to ensure clear line-of-sight for the survey equipment and improve data accuracy.
