Exploring the Basics and Importance of Land Surveying!

Land surveys are important tools in the realm of real estate, construction, and land development. They serve as the foundational blueprint for understanding and utilizing pieces of land effectively. A land survey involves the precise measurement and mapping of a property's boundaries, topography, and features. These surveys are conducted by licensed land surveyors who employ various techniques to provide accurate and reliable data.

What is Land Surveying?

Land surveying is the process of measuring and mapping out the land. Surveyors use a combination of mathematics, technology, and physical observation to determine the boundaries and features of a piece of land. This information is crucial for creating accurate maps, planning construction projects, and resolving property disputes.

What, Exactly, Does a Land Survey Find?

Here's a Step-by-Step Look at How Our Experienced Team at Dolphin Engineers Conducts a Land Survey:

First, it allows you to determine the precise boundaries of your property. This information can allow you to identify the locations of structures, additions, and improvements to your property.
Second, it can find the slopes and other geographic features of a property. This information may be helpful for a property owner who is planning to build more on their land and needs to know its features.
Third, it finds the locations of easements and utilities. Easements offer the right to use someone else’s property for specific reasons.
Finally, a land survey can identify whether the land is a floodplain. This is very good information to know before buying a property, to avoid accidentally acquiring property that is prone to flooding.

Tools and techniques used for major land surveys include theodolites for measuring angles, GPS units for location data, and total stations that integrate the functionalities of both. Drones are used for aerial surveys, capturing detailed images and data. These tools and techniques enable highly accurate and reliable surveys.
