OTIC Surveys

15/06/2026

OTIC Surveys recently completed the installation of a new CORS (Continuously Operating Reference Station) at the Department of Surveying and Geo-Informatics, University of Ilorin, Kwara State.

This installation represents more than the addition of a new station. It strengthens the growing network of CORS infrastructure that supports high-precision GNSS positioning and RTK correction services across Nigeria.

As demand for accurate geospatial data continues to increase across surveying, engineering, construction, mapping, GIS, and land administration, reliable positioning infrastructure becomes increasingly important.

The Kwara CORS station will contribute to improved positioning accuracy, enhanced operational efficiency, and greater accessibility to precision surveying services for professionals and organizations within the region and beyond.

With nearly 30 CORS stations installed across the country, OTIC Surveys remains committed to expanding the infrastructure that enables accurate positioning, reliable data collection, and informed decision-making.

We are proud to contribute to the advancement of Nigeria's geospatial ecosystem, one installation at a time.

That piece of land may look perfect today, but what happens when the rains come?

Many buyers only discover drainage problems, flooding risks, encroachments, or boundary disputes after making payment. By then, it is often too late.

Before you buy any land, verify it.

A professional land survey helps you understand the true condition of the property, identify potential risks, confirm boundaries, and make informed investment decisions.

Don't let a beautiful dry-season inspection fool you. Flood-prone areas can become costly mistakes during the rainy season.

Whether you're buying land for residential, commercial, or investment purposes, proper verification can save you millions in future losses.

Have you ever checked a property during the rainy season before buying?

What do you think of CORS stations? Are you using it?
Share your experience with us, how has it impacted your fieldwork?

A CORS (Continuously Operating Reference Stations) system is a network of permanently installed GNSS base stations that continuously receive satellite signals and provide real-time correction data to Surveyors. Unlike traditional surveying methods that require setting up a base station for each project, a CORS network in Nigeria allows Surveyors to connect directly using the internet and achieve centimeter-level accuracy instantly.

As Nigeria continues to adopt digital mapping, smart cities, and modern surveying technology, CORS systems in Nigeria will become even more essential. Surveyors who adopt GNSS CORS technology early will benefit from improved accuracy, faster workflows, and better project delivery.
