Research
Survey plats, land records, and other legal documents are gathered from
courthouses and online facilities and used to begin a survey project.

|
Field Mapping To accurately record distances on the ground, surveyors typically utilize total stations, precise levels, GPS, EDMs, and steel tapes. |
|
Data Management Data management tools can be scaled to meet the your needs, from the individual to workgroups and large, multi-user, enterprises. |
|
Computation/Analysis Measurements must be adjusted to fit geometric conditions. To achieve this, surveyors analyze errors and redistribute them to an acceptable tolerance. |
|
Mapping/Visualization Measurements, survey points, and computations are all managed and stored in a GIS system. Raw survey data, COGO measurements, and field sketches can be entered directly into the GIS. |
Measurement and LocationThe Science of Surveyors
Surveyors and engineers understand the importance of geographic data. Surveyors
use precise instruments, procedures, and computations to accurately locate
and define geographic features while conducting field surveys that range from
cadastral to engineering construction layout. Engineers design and build structures
and infrastructures on geography measured by surveyors.
