 The key global players in the market were Thales S.A. (France), Trimble Navigation Ltd. (U.S.), Topcon Corporation (Japan), Fugro (Netherlands), and Hexagon AB (Sweden), among others. These companies adopted growth strategies such as new product launches, supply contracts, and business acquisition to capture the majority share in the survey equipment market.

The hydrographic survey equipment market is estimated to hold the largest share in the global survey equipment market in 2016. The geophysical offshore survey sector is driving the growth of major offshore industries viz. oil & gas fields that subsequently encourage the development of the market. Moreover, there are various factors driving the hydrographic survey equipment market. These include development of offshore marine infrastructure fields, such as ports, bridges, effluent disposal systems for major industries and coastal thermal power plants that use seawater as a coolant, among others.

The construction & engineering application segment is estimated to account for the largest share in the land survey equipment market. Advanced construction techniques such as standardization and modularization are becoming the preferred choice for engineers in the offshore oil and gas exploration, construction, and aerospace and defense sectors. These techniques enable engineers and project managers to complete the operation in comparatively lesser time and at lower costs, which is the primary reason for them to be more adaptable
