FAQs
Land surveying is the process of measuring and mapping the physical features of an area of land. This can include details like elevation changes, natural features, and marking property lines.
Land surveying is important because it can be used to resolve boundary disputes, ensure accurate property descriptions for legal purposes, plot planning, and establish property boundaries.
Land surveys should be completed when there is a boundary dispute, you buy a piece of land, you’re subdividing land, constructing a new building, or applying for building permits. It is also recommended that you have a survey conducted periodically to ensure the accuracy of property boundaries.
A land survey provides detailed information about property boundaries, including measurements, markers, and legal descriptions. It may also include elevation changes, physical features, existing structures, and utilities.
The duration of a land survey depends on several factors such as the size of the land, the physical characteristics of the land, and the type of survey you want conducted. Simple surveys can take several days while more complex surveys can take up to several weeks.
Plot planning is the designing and organizing of a piece of property for commercial or residential development. This includes the placement of buildings, utilities, roads, and other features.
Plot planning is important for the efficient use of land and ensure that all project goals are met. It also helps to optimize space, minimize conflicts, and ensure you adhere to zoning regulations.
While plot planning can be done by individuals with knowledge and experience in land development, it is highly recommended to consult a professional land surveyor. They have the expertise, tools, and understanding of local regulations to ensure accurate measurements, proper boundary identification, and compliance with legal requirements.
