Geospatial management at Murphy Geospatial_
Murphy Geospatial is a proven expert in delivering geospatial solutions for a successful delivery of large-scale civil engineering projects. Our team offers geospatial management throughout all stages of the construction project lifecycle.
Our team has decades of experience across a diverse range of sectors throughout Ireland, the UK and Europe. Our team brings the knowledge and experience to help you minimise risk, delays, disruption, and unnecessary costs, with a ‘right first time culture.
We work with you
Our geospatial managers work with you to understand the needs of your project, develop a bespoke geospatial management plan of geospatial services.
We keep things moving
Our geospatial managers transform data into actionable information that enhances decisionmaking. Our projects control teams ensure quality of build, reducing conflicts and risks.
We support change
In an ever-changing environment, geospatial information that represents the true onsite conditions provides a better understanding of potential risks, enabling informed decisions to mitigate impacts.
We get it right
By focusing on solutions centred around people, process, and technology, our geospatial engineers ensure accuracy, helping you reduce wasted resources and increase profitability.

Delivering success through geospatial management
Our projects showcase our commitment to excellence in geospatial management and monitoring in construction projects. Our bespoke solutions, managed and delivered by our expert team, provide the desired results throughout your project’s lifecycle.
Lower Thames Crossing – Kent, UK
The Lower Thames Crossing is a highway project that is an essential component of the UK’s future transport infrastructure. There are also two 4km tunnels crossing below the river. The scheme will add 23km of new highway to connect the tunnels to the existing road network. We completed ground movement monitoring at the planning stage of the project. Our task was to create a stable control network in an area influenced by tidal movements, from the nearby River Thames, and from the ground dewatering works to monitor the surrounding area which included a live railway line. The observation data from the stations was captured and transmitted fully automated.

Metrolink –Dublin, Ireland
We provided a digital asset of the proposed route for the Metrolink project in Dublin, Ireland, during the planning and design phase. The project covered both urban and suburban areas. Our multi-disciplinary team utilised UAV technology, control, topographical, and hydrographic survey methods to gather geospatial data. Early engagement in the project allowed the team to understand technical and social requirements, with a focus on minimising public disruption. Planning involved installing control networks, obtaining necessary permissions, and dividing the topographical survey into five zones. Executing the project involved diverse survey techniques and processing the collected data using various software packages. A key lesson learned was the importance of early integration of data from different platforms for an accurate 3D model.
Luas Cross City – Dublin, Ireland
We delivered key geospatial management for the Luas Cross City project in Dublin, which involved linking two existing light rail networks. Our team provided critical surveying and engineering services, establishing control networks, conducting settingout works, deformation monitoring, and subsurface mapping. The use of technical sensor-driven solutions enabled automated data capture, which helped in overcoming challenges such as stringent construction specifications, including tight tolerances for rail construction and paving under constraints. Our expert team was able to execute these solutions in a complex urban environment with phased construction, to the highest standard.
