The Land Survey generally is a survey that is performed to identify the property boundaries. The surveyor will research and measure existing boundary positions based upon found property markers or monuments in the area and will establish new property corner pins for the client. Every property line has two owners and the Land Survey allows both property owners to assert ownership to their boundaries.
Commercial sites are generally developed using a combination of several types of surveys including boundary survey, topographic survey, land planning, design and sometimes subdivision platting. The surveyor will identify existing characteristics of the project site and may be retained to plan for new infrastructure, grades, landscaping, and/or services for the proposed building project.
Land Planning and Design are important components in the growth of a community. The extension of infrastructure such as water lines, sanitary sewer lines, streets and storm sewers requires planning, design and negotiations with public planners, engineers and administrators. Many communities offer financing assistance through the sale of municipal bonds allowing the infrastructure to be constructed and then paid by special assessments over a period of twenty years. J.D.

This survey can be used by the property owner for the construction of a fence, structure or other improvements.
A tract survey is similar to a boundary survey in that a boundary survey of the subject property will be made and the property corners will be located and verified or reset. This survey is normally performed on large parcels of land, which have improvements that do not require location. A check for violations or encroachments onto or from the subject property will be made, with the primary emphasis being concentrated along the property lines in order to establish any conflicts between the surveyed line and any apparent lines of possession. This survey can be used by the property owner for the construction of a fence, structure or other improvements.
