CMS Surveyors were contracted to supply a scan of a Morton Bay Fig in the grounds of the University of Sydney, adjacent to the site of a proposed new build. The site architects were concerned that the position of the new building would impact on the historical tree.

CMS Surveyors provided a scan of the tree and overlaid both the proposed building and tree in a Revit model to illustrate the relative positions of both. Subsequently, a potential conflict was identified. Costly rebuilds and redesigns were avoided due to the early detection of this positional clash.
