PS-Survey Groep

What PS-Survey Groep does

PS-Survey Groep is a Belgian collective of four land surveying companies headquartered in Maaseik, operating in Belgium and the Netherlands. Founded in 1999 by Peter Strigencz (an industrial engineer specializing in land surveying), the group has grown to approximately 17 employees organized across four subsidiaries: PS-Survey (core land and depth measurements, including 3D laser scanning and volume calculations), Bouwmaatvoering (construction surveying for industrial, residential, and civil engineering projects), Avisum (drone-based aerial surveying, photogrammetry, LiDAR, and thermography), and PS-Landmeters (cadastral and boundary surveying for the private market). The group's competitive positioning rests on integrated multi-technique surveying — combining RTK-GPS, total station, 3D laser scanning (Leica RTC360), multibeam sonar (Kongsberg), and drone-based LiDAR — underpinned by purpose-built equipment including the Aquavisum survey vessel and DJI Dock 2 drone-in-a-box systems.

The company's revenue model is project-based professional services billing, with quote-driven pricing and a 24-hour response commitment. Clients include Dutch government agency Rijkswaterstaat, large contractors Van den Herik and Boskalis/Stevacon (via Maasband VOF), the Grensmaas Consortium, LRM, and private individuals. The group has held the full surveying scope on flagship multi-year projects including the 43 km Grensmaas river project (ongoing since 2008) and the 4.5 km Julianakanaal canal widening. Technical differentiators include a proprietary point cloud workflow that reduces 100+ GB of raw scan data into a 40 GB client-accessible viewer deliverable, multi-GPS base station infrastructure for centimeter-level accuracy across long corridors, and early-mover DJI Dock 2 autonomous drone deployment with SORA regulatory authorization in the Benelux.

The go-to-market is direct sales-led enterprise and government engagement, supported by a LinkedIn presence, project case studies, and an online quote request form. The company is privately held, founder-owned, with no external investment or parent company, and operates as a structurally independent Belgian SME in the professional surveying sector.

Core offering

PS-Survey Groep is a Belgian land surveying company founded in 1999, headquartered in Neeroeteren/Maaseik, that delivers professional surveying services through four subsidiaries (PS-Survey, PS-Survey Bouwmaatvoering, Avisum, and PS-Landmeters). The group offers land surveying, depth measurements, 3D laser scanning, drone surveying, machine control, and cadastral surveys to construction firms, engineers, public-sector clients, and private individuals.

Product overview

PS-Survey Groep is a collective of four land surveying companies offering comprehensive measurement and surveying services. The group consists of: PS-Survey (core land and depth surveying with 3D laser scanning, volume calculations, and underwater measurements), Bouwmaatvoering (construction surveying for industrial, residential and civil engineering projects), Avisum (drone-based aerial surveying including photogrammetry, LiDAR, and thermography), and PS-Landmeters (cadastral boundary and subdivision services for private clients). Together they provide end-to-end surveying capabilities from ground-based to aerial methods, underwater to above-water measurements, and from initial surveys to final project monitoring.

Partnerships

Five partnerships are on record, tiered core, supporting and project.

• Sitech NederlandcoreTechnology or IntegrationPS-Survey Groep works with Sitech Nederland as a technology partner for GPS and measurement infrastructure. For the Julianakanaal project, the multi-GPS base station system was set up together with Sitech Nederland, providing a robust and necessary solution for high-accuracy positioning across the 4.5 km project site.
• EuroUSC-BeneluxsupportingStrategic or Co-development PartnerAvisum engaged EuroUSC-Benelux to assist with the SORA (Specific Operations Risk Assessment) application submitted to the Belgian Civil Aviation Authority (DGLV) for drone-in-a-box (DJI Dock 2) operations, demonstrating regulatory expertise collaboration for complex drone authorizations.
• Nobhill (Turnhout)projectStrategic or Co-development PartnerPS-Survey collaborated with Nobhill from Turnhout on a 3D laser scanning project to map a 3-floor villa with 40+ rooms. The joint project developed a workflow for making point cloud data accessible to non-expert clients, with Nobhill providing the client's requirements and PS-Survey providing the scanning technology and data processing.
• IGL (International Geodetic Services)supportingImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerFor the Julianakanaal project, PS-Survey collaborates with land surveyors from IGL for the external fieldwork, complementing PS-Survey's internal team. PS-Survey serves as the main point of contact and is responsible for the overall measurement plan.
• Van den HerikcoreImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerPS-Survey works as the main surveying partner for Van den Herik (main contractor) on the Julianakanaal widening project. PS-Survey develops the specific measurement plan, provides machine models in the correct format, and coordinates all surveying and quality control activities. Weekly survey meetings are held to review the full measurement process.

Regional players

• TerraTec: Norwegian surveying and geo-data firm offering land, hydrographic, and aerial surveys. Operates a comparable multi-technique stack (multibeam, drone, terrestrial scanning) but focused on the Norwegian market rather than Benelux.
• GeoXYZ: France-based surveying and UAV services firm with European operations. Comparable multi-technique surveying stack (terrestrial, mobile, aerial, bathymetric) but primarily serves French and broader European clients outside the Benelux.

Broad incumbents

• Sweco: Nordic-headquartered engineering, design, and consultancy firm with substantial surveying and geo-data capabilities across Europe. Competes for large public-sector infrastructure contracts where PS-Survey also bids.
• Antea Group: Dutch engineering and infrastructure consulting firm with surveying, geo-data, and project-management capabilities. Competes for municipal, water-authority, and infrastructure contracts in the Netherlands where PS-Survey is active.
• Fugro: Dutch-headquartered global leader in geotechnical, survey, and geo-data services with deep hydrographic and offshore expertise. Operates at vastly larger scale than PS-Survey but competes for similar infrastructure, dredging, and offshore surveying contracts in the Netherlands.

Direct peers

• Eurosense: Belgian full-service surveying and remote-sensing firm offering aerial surveys, mobile mapping, hydrography, and 3D laser scanning. Direct overlap with PS-Survey across land, aerial, and underwater surveying services in the Benelux market.
• Cyclomedia: Dutch company specializing in systematic aerial imagery, street-level mobile mapping, and LiDAR-based 3D data products. Comparable to Avisum's drone and 3D-mapping offering and a likely competitor on Dutch municipal and infrastructure projects.
• Aerodata International: Belgian aerial survey and UAV operator providing photogrammetry, LiDAR, and thermography for infrastructure and environmental projects. Closely mirrors Avisum's drone-surveying proposition and competes in the same Benelux market.
• SkyVision: Netherlands-based drone surveying company providing aerial photogrammetry, LiDAR mapping, and inspection services. Closely comparable to Avisum and competes for Dutch infrastructure, construction, and inspection engagements.

Others

• Hexagon / Leica Geosystems: Global surveying equipment and software provider whose Leica RTC360 scanners and Cyclone Register software are core tools in PS-Survey's 3D laser scanning workflow. Acts as a supplier but also competes via integrated surveying solutions and autonomous capture platforms.
