Who is a Land Surveyor?

Working as a land surveyor is one of the most exciting things in the engineering and real estate fields. However, a lot of people also seem to be confused over what these people do. In this article, we will be providing a detailed explanation of how land surveyors help in real estate development and construction. Surveying

On the face of it, surveying it measurement. Whether it is on land, the sea, or the sky, surveying its mapping out a piece of real estate. So, you really can find surveyors pretty much everywhere; from the deep urban jungles to the heights of the polar regions. The job of a general surveyor is to find, ascertain, and record the lines that mark the boundaries of a piece of property or real estate. Some surveyors start out as explorers, going into new lands and understanding the distinctions between regions. Some begin to work for real estate developers, helping them to divide property into various sectors. In any area that gas been market for development settlement, surveyors will be required to ensure that boundaries are effectively and accurately drawn in order to avoid cases of people trespassing on other peoples' lands or stretching their into some protected areas. The Land Surveyors' Job Description

As we have established earlier, there are various types of surveyors. Land surveyors, however, help to perform measurements that relate to the development of a map of an area. A land surveyor might work in an office, in the field, or combine both, depending on the nature of the task that they will need to undertake. Land surveyors work with field equipment such as theodolites, GPS trackers, and terrestrial scanners. To ensure that their work is foolproof, they take pictures and make calculations. Also, their maps and measurements are done with the use of sophisticated development software. It is also important to note that land surveyors can work for more than just the real estate developers. 

They perform surveys on areas marked as potential mining spots, they help map out routes for building tunnels, and they provide assistant for major construction projects as well. Apart from just measuring land, surveyors could work as consultants for building engineers, architects, and developers. All of these and more are their duties, and in order to carry them out effectively, they will need to keep in touch with appropriate property laws and real estate regulations. Land surveyors also come in various forms:
  1. There are boundary land surveyors, who identify property lines and determine where a construction or real estate project should be situated to avoid disputes
  2. Construction or engineering surveyors find the exact location of buildings and roads, or the proper depth that a foundation will need to go to. These people discover changes in property lines and understand the potential restrictions of a property. They can also help survey road topographies.
  3. Forensic land surveyors account for accident scenes and survey them for their potential landscape effects
  4. Geodetic surveyors record satellite and aerial observations to measure areas on the surface of the Earth
  5. Marine surveyors use water bodies to find shorelines, the depth of water bodies themselves, water topography, and more.
