SURVEY
F.F. Cruz and Co., Inc. (FFCCI) began as a small surveying company established by Engr. Felipe F. Cruz, a pioneer Geodetic Engineer. FFCCI has since expanded its services to become one of the leading construction and engineering companies in the Philippines, but the Survey Division remains at the heart of the company because construction is built on the solid foundation of an accurate survey. |
Our international record for more than fifty years has distinguished us in the surveying industry, undertaking several projects for our Asian neighbors and the United States government, including the equatorial tracking operation for the U.S. Army Topographic Command’s Sequential Collation of Range (SECOR) Satellite System, the precursor to the current configuration of satellites for global positioning (GPS). |
FFCCI was the first to offer aerial photography services in the country. We have conducted aerial survey and mapping of almost fourteen million hectares of land area in the Philippines for government agencies, private engineering and construction firms, real estate developers, and consulting companies. We were also the first to introduce digital change analysis using orthophoto maps and GIS techniques in the country. |
Our engineers are experienced in the conduct of different types of surveys, including topographic and engineering surveys, parcellary, cadastral, relocation, control surveys, surveying for geotechnical investigation, and hydrographic survey.

In keeping with the company’s thrust to keep abreast of technology, we have incorporated advanced technologies such as the use of ground penetrating radar (GPR) for pre-construction and geotechnical investigation, and a side-scan sonar system for bathymetric survey. |
