Case Study: Duncan Bates Land Surveyors achieves faster, easier CAD surveying with AllyCAD

Duncan Bates Land Surveyors - Customer Case Study

Duncan Bates Land Surveyors, led by Duncan Bates, is a long-established land surveying firm that has built its business on high-quality service and word-of-mouth referrals. As surveying technology evolved, the team faced the challenge of maintaining centimetre-accurate work while using increasingly advanced tools and CAD workflows; Duncan Bates highlighted AllyCAD as a key software in the office, alongside Civil Designer.

AllyCAD helped Duncan Bates Land Surveyors quickly and easily plot and refine survey data, including using photographic bitmaps as drawing backdrops. The firm credits AllyCAD with improving drafting efficiency and accuracy, and Duncan Bates says it clearly outperforms competitors. A major result of this capability was the successful planning approval for a 1,160-unit private golf estate in Stellenbosch, achieved through coordinated professional teamwork and no public objections during the planning phase.
