Ensuring safety and compliance
Complying with the Burial Act 1853, cemetery operators are expected to uphold current plans for graves, vaults and burial spaces. Our meticulous cemetery mapping services not only ensure your records are properly preserved but also deliver practical paper maps for effortless navigation.
In accordance with the Burial Act of 1853, all cemetery operators are required to maintain accurate and up-to-date plans of graves, vaults, and grave spaces as part of their burial records. Our cemetery mapping services will help you maintain proper records and create paper maps for easier navigation.
An accurate mapping system is essential for effective cemetery management, ensuring a quality service for families and local funeral directors. By preserving existing records and organising new ones, cemetery mapping simplifies the process of locating plots for families and funeral directors.
Outdated, illegible, or poorly managed records can lead to significant operational issues and strain relationships with the public and local funeral homes. Common problems include double bookings, burials in incorrect plots, selling occupied plots, and exhumation requirements. These situations are distressing for families who wish to grieve and honour their loved ones.
We offer services such as digitisation of paper maps, topographical surveys, data collection, updated burial layout plans, and integration into your chosen GIS system for future management.
Cemetery mapping is a practical approach for assessing remaining burial capacity, optimising available space, and facilitating future burial planning.
