The name Ecce Terra comes from Latin and means “Behold the Earth”. As specialists who measure the Earth, locate properties on it, develop its land and manage its resources, we honour this expression.
ISO certified, Ecce Terra was born after two land-surveying firms in Beauce merged together in 1952 and 1976. Today, Ecce Terra has nine branches in Quebec, over twenty land surveyors and seventy to one hundred employees, depending on the season.
We therefore serve local Quebec customers and also wish to contribute to land management and the securing of land ownership rights in other countries. With 30 years of experience as a key player in the Quebec Cadastre Reform Program, we have become strategic allies for similar projects that are being developed elsewhere in the world.
Recognized as one of Canada’s leading land surveyors, Ecce Terra aims to promote Canadian know-how in its field of expertise. It strives to improve the world and its environment in a sustainable and equitable way.
Ecce Terra offers a wide range of land-surveying and geomatics services to individuals and contractors, and designs geolocalization applications and innovative referencing tools for municipalities, cities and other institutions in Quebec and elsewhere.
Ecce Terra strives to remain a specialist in its field of expertise and be recognized as a Canadian leader both within and outside of Canada.
Ecce Terra achieves its development objectives by promoting and adhering to strong values that guide its daily activities.
Ecce Terra keeps the land-surveying documents produced by the following land surveyors on record. Our decades of experience and preserved collection of historic land-surveying documents have helped us develop extensive knowledge in our field.
Today, Ecce Terra is made up of five companies who merged and evolved together. If you have any land-surveying documents that refer to any of these companies, please contact us. Ecce Terra continues to work on the mandates they used to carry out.
