When do you need a Site Analysis Survey?

Example Site Analysis Survey Plan

If you are in the early stages of your development project, you may have been told that you need a Site Analysis Survey of your property.

Sometimes, these surveys may also be called a ResCode Survey, Site Description or Site Context Plan.

What is a Site Analysis Survey?

A Site Analysis captures your property details in addition to the details of properties within a 50-metre radius of the proposed development site.

These surveys will capture and present the following information:

  • Roof Information of buildings/dwellings.
  • Building/dwelling details and vehicle access points along the street.
  • Fencing types and heights.
  • Building/dwelling setback information.
  • Proximity to nearby public open space, community & recreational facilities, schools, local shops & public transport.
  • Individual house photos.

At Linear Land Surveying, we often conduct a Site Analysis along side a Title Re-establishment Survey and a Feature & Level Survey.

Why do I need a Site Analysis Survey?

The information captured in these surveys helps your architect design the development with an accurate understanding of the site.

Correct data in the early design and planning stages can make for a smooth and economical project.

These surveys also ensure your designs fit within local planning guidelines and regulations.

When do I need a Site Analysis Survey?

You will require a Site Analysis as part of town planning applications for subdivision (Clause 56 of Council Planning Schemes).

These surveys help local councils review the land project and ensure that any proposed development suits the existing neighbourhood character and layout.

They will also be required to help you to gain approval from the appropriate authority for your subdivision project.
