Did you know today is Global Surveyors Day?

It’s not something many people talk about or celebrate, to be honest, but surveying is one of those jobs that quietly supports almost everything around us. Surveyors set the boundaries that stop disputes, provide the accurate site data designers and builders rely on, and make sure structures go in the right place.
Without surveyors, building homes and infrastructure would be messy, slower, and far more costly, with a lot more arguments over where one property ends and the next begins.

And with major demand across Australia, the industry is also facing a skills shortage. That means the work surveyors do is more important than ever, and experienced people in the field are in high demand.

That’s why we’re especially proud of our crew. They’re out there day after day: showing up early, working safely, dealing with tricky sites, and delivering clear, accurate results our clients can rely on. If you know a surveyor, take a moment to thank them today. They’re often behind the scenes, but they’re the reason projects stay on track and “close enough” isn’t good enough.

Happy Global Surveyors Day!

We’re currently working with Clarke Hopkins Clarke Architects on a 3D laser scanning job for a large office building/factory.
The project involves renovating a two storey section of the building to include a cafeteria, staff amenities and other internal upgrades.

Using our Trimble SX10, we capture a detailed 3D point cloud of the interior, essentially a highly accurate digital model of the space. This data is then provided to the architects, who use it to design the new layout.

In the past, a job like this would involve manual measuring and total station work to pick up key points around the building. It took longer and increased the chance of missing details, which could mean multiple site visits.

With 3D laser scanning, we can capture the entire space in a single visit, with far greater detail and accuracy, while reducing time on site.

A great example of how technology is making surveying faster, more efficient and more reliable.

It’s been a tough start to the year, with extreme heat, catastrophic conditions and several bushfires breaking out across Victoria.
Fire activity in North East Victoria in January meant we had to delay some scheduled jobs in Cudgewa. Safety always comes first for our crew and the communities we work in. Our team was able to visit the properties this week to do the site work, and we’re glad to report they were spared from the fires, no doubt thanks to the firefighters and emergency services doing a great job under such difficult conditions.
Although we’ve had some welcome rain in recent weeks, many parts of the state are still very dry, including Bendigo where we also have an office. We’re not out of bushfire season yet, so please stay alert, stay fire-smart, and here’s hoping for a smoother run through the rest of the year.

We’re back in full swing for 2026, and our team has already been busy supporting clients with subdivisions, developments and construction projects for the year ahead.
We’re looking forward to continuing to deliver reliable, accurate and professional surveying services across Victoria and into NSW.
Meet the team who make it all happen — Michael, Dale, Jordan, Dan, Pete, Ben, Joanne and Kanchan. Not pictured are Max and our Bendigo team: Paul, Jason, Felix and Bart.
Their experience, attention to detail and commitment to quality are what set us apart.

Our Managing Director Pete is taking on Tour de Cure again this year to raise money for vital cancer research in honor of his Mum, who sadly passed away from stomach cancer in 2024.

The ride will be 3 days along the Great Ocean Road, Geelong, and the Mornington Peninsula raising funds for the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute.

Help Pete and all those affected by cancer by donating to the cause, every dollar counts!

We’ve opened in Echuca–Moama!

Big news for the Farren Land Surveys team — we now have a base in Echuca–Moama, making it easier to help clients right across the Murray River region.
For the past 25 years, we’ve been working on everything from small residential blocks to large‑scale developments and rural properties all over Victoria. Now, we can be on‑site even faster for projects in northern Victoria, southern NSW, and rural communities along the Murray.

From subdivisions and boundary surveys to feature & level surveys, construction set‑outs and 3D laser scanning — if it needs to be measured, mapped or set out, we’ve got you covered.

If you’ve got a farm, rural block, new home site or commercial project in the area, give us a call - we’d love to work with you.

Surveying Both Sides of the Murray River

Did you know Farren Group is licensed to work in both Victoria and New South Wales?

If you’ve got a project near the border, our team knows the rules and processes in both states – so you can get everything sorted without the hassle.

Throwback to 2017 when one of our surveyors caught this accidental work of art at Shepparton Hospital during a features and levels survey. The light, the shadow, the shapes… *chef’s kiss*

This project was part of the Goulburn Valley Health redevelopment, where we provided critical surveying services, including features and levels surveys, underground detection surveys to locate services, and laser scanning of key areas like the basement and roof space.

It’s always rewarding to contribute to projects that make such a difference to the community, and sometimes you stumble upon a golden hour moment along the way!
