What Does a Land Surveyor Do?

Land surveyors perform a variety of services, including:

• Boundary surveys: A boundary survey is used to determine the legal boundaries of a property. This type of survey is often used to resolve boundary disputes, obtain building permits, or create a record of a property’s boundaries.
• Topographic surveys: These surveys create a detailed map of the land, including its elevation, features, and vegetation. They are often used for planning construction projects, such as roads, buildings, or pipelines.
• As-built surveys: These surveys create a map of a completed construction project. An as-built survey creates a record of the physical condition of a property after it has been built. This type of survey is often used to document changes to a property, such as the addition of new buildings or structures, or the removal of existing features.
• ALTA/ACSM surveys: These surveys are used to provide title insurance companies with information about the boundaries of a property. They are required for most commercial real estate transactions.
• Subdivision surveys: These surveys are used to divide a large piece of land into smaller parcels. They are required by the government before a subdivision can be developed.
• Utility surveys: These surveys locate underground utilities, such as pipes, wires, and cables. They are required before construction can begin in an area where utilities are present.

Types of surveyors Service we provide?

There are many different types of surveyors, each with their own specialized skills and knowledge. Some of the most common types of surveyors include:

• Land surveyors are responsible for measuring and mapping land boundaries. We use a variety of tools and techniques to determine the location of property lines, including GPS, lasers, and surveying instruments. We are work with real estate transactions, construction projects, and legal disputes.
• Engineering surveyors use their skills to plan and design construction projects. We measure and map the land, and then use this information to create plans for roads, bridges, buildings, and other structures. We also work on environmental projects, such as the construction of dams and pipelines.
• Mining surveyors use their skills to locate and map mineral deposits. We use a variety of tools and techniques to measure the depth and extent of mineral deposits, and then use this information to plan and develop mining operations.
• Hydrographic surveyors use their skills to map bodies of water, such as lakes, rivers, and oceans. We measure the depth and width of water bodies, and then use this information to create nautical charts and other navigational aids.
• Geodetic surveyors use their skills to measure the size and shape of the Earth. We use a variety of tools and techniques to measure the Earth’s gravity field, and then use this information to create accurate maps and globes.
• Aerial surveying uses airplanes, helicopters, or drones to collect data about the Earth’s surface.
• Cadastral surveying is the process of creating and maintaining maps of land ownership.
• Environmental surveying is the process of collecting data about the environment, such as air quality, water quality, and soil quality.
• Photogrammetry is the process of creating maps and models from photographs.
• Remote sensing is the process of collecting data about the Earth’s surface from a distance, such as using satellites or radar.
• Marine surveyors inspect and assess the condition of boats and ships. They can provide information about a vessel’s value, seaworthiness, and any potential problems.
• Aviation surveyors map and measure land and structures for use in aviation. They can be used to create airport layouts, plan flight paths, and identify potential hazards.
