F.A.Q.
1: What is Land Surveying, and Why Do I Need It?
Land surveying is the process of precisely measuring and mapping the physical features of a piece of land. You might need it for property boundary determination, construction planning, property development, and legal documentation. Surveying is essential for efficient land use and to avoid property boundary disputes.
2: How Does 3D Laser Scanning Work?
3D laser scanning is a technology that captures detailed three-dimensional data using laser beams. It works by emitting laser pulses and measuring the time they take to bounce back. This data is then used to create digital representations of objects or environments with exceptional precision and accuracy.
3: What's the Difference Between ALTA/NSPS Surveys and Boundary Surveys?
An ALTA/NSPS survey is a comprehensive survey adhering to specific standards set by the American Land Title Association and the National Society of Professional Surveyors. It provides an extensive overview of a property’s features, encumbrances, and land title information. In contrast, a boundary survey primarily focuses on determining property lines and boundaries for legal or property dispute purposes.
4: How Long Does a Land Survey Typically Take?
The duration of a land survey can vary based on project size and complexity. A simple residential survey might take a few hours, while a large-scale topographic survey could take days or weeks. Discuss the timeline with your surveyor based on your specific project needs.
