Frequently asked questions

Common questions about our services

Straight answers to the questions clients ask before a survey starts.

A land surveying company in Uganda such as COGO provides topographic surveys, cadastral (boundary and title) surveys, Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) consultancy, property valuation, hydrographic surveys, setting out and structural monitoring, and survey control extension for public and private sector projects.
Land survey costs in Uganda vary based on plot size, terrain, location and survey type (boundary, topographic, cadastral, etc.). Simple boundary surveys can start from a few hundred thousand Ugandan shillings, while large infrastructure or feasibility surveys are quoted per project. Contact COGO for a free, no-obligation quote tailored to your project.
A Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) is a document required for infrastructure, energy and road projects in Uganda that involve land acquisition or displacement of people. It is typically mandated by government agencies and development partners such as the World Bank, AfDB and JICA. COGO prepares, implements, monitors and audits RAPs for projects across Uganda and East Africa.
Timelines depend on plot size, site accessibility and survey scope. A single plot boundary survey can often be completed within a few days, while large topographic surveys for roads, powerlines or dams may take several weeks. COGO provides a project timeline upfront after an initial site assessment.
