Spanish term or phrase: levantamiento de plantas

La medición topográfica la hemos utilizado siempre para establecer sistemas de referencia y especialmente para el levantamiento de plantas, aunque también hemos realizado algún levantamiento integramente con esta técnica

surveying sites

Explanation:
It could be more specific (surveying building or ground plans), but since it is talking about topography, I'm assuming that it is referring to an entire archaelogical site and not just one building.
