Buying or Renting Survey Equipment

Surveying equipment is the backbone of industries such as construction, land development and infrastructure projects. As such, choosing what’s right for you is crucial when it comes to ensuring accuracy and efficiency, not to mention the financial implications.

One of the first decisions you’ll face is whether to buy brand new, to lease or to purchase used surveying equipment. Each option comes with its own set of benefits.

In this article we’ll explore the advantages of each option, all of which are available to SEP Geospatial customers.
