6 Land Surveyor Jobs for Your Development Plan

11/15/2018

16 Comments

 
Your team needs to plan for every contingency when you are creating a comprehensive development blueprint. The best way to create a successful development project is to make sure you are thorough in your preparation.  Make sure you perform all the necessary surveys so you don’t have any unwelcome surprises later in the project.  There are a wide variety of land surveyor jobs that need to be performed when structuring a development plan, which GeoSearch Inc. has included for your benefit below.
 

1. Topographic Surveys
 
You'll need to hire a land surveyor to perform any type of topographic data collection necessary for your development planning. This survey pinpoints specific geographic features, such as tree lines, existing bodies of water, drastic changes in elevation, and similar characteristics.
 
2. Boundary Assessments
 
Boundary assessments are one of the most important land surveyor jobs.  Nearly every project begins with this type of survey which enables you to determine the specific dimensions of your development project and identify boundaries between existing parcels of land so there's no confusion once work begins.
 
3. Construction Surveys 
 
You’ll need to hire a land surveying team to perform a construction survey when you are developing precise plans and measurements for your project. This will make the site preparation and building portion of your development project more efficient and help reduce errors once construction begins.
 
4. Site Planning 
 
You need to make certain that the area where a large-scale development project is located is properly prepared when you are embarking upon a project of this type. This makes site planning a common land surveyor job. They use boundary and topographic details to identify the best places for building new units, and creating commercial lots and other structures.
 
5. Location Survey 
 
All building projects require the proper zoning permissions and building permits. To obtain such necessities, a location survey will first need to be performed to identify existing boundaries and areas where previous improvements have been made.
 
6. Comprehensive Land Assessment 
 
This type of land survey is for when you need to know literally every aspect about a particular parcel of land. Therefore, it incorporates all of the land surveyor jobs mentioned above. This survey type is most frequently used for commercial purposes and lending agreements.

It's interesting to learn more about land surveys and development. I didn't realize that site planning was good for large-scale projects. So, would my wife and I need one of those if we end up having a home built?

Thanks for explaining how a land surveyor is needed for any type of topographic data collection needed for development planning to pinpoint geographic features. I just inherited a piece of land from my parents, and I will need to get a topographic survey. I'll be sure to work with a land surveyor so I can efficiently get this done.

Thank you for helping me learn more about construction surveying. It is good to know that having one can make site preparation and building be more efficient. I like that it can reduce errors once construction starts.

Thanks for helping me learn more about different land surveys. It's interesting to learn that a construction survey could help site preparation. It sounds important to perform this early to figure out how much space a project will allow for when building something.

I appreciate what you said about location surveys helping to find the boundaries of a property before a building can be constructed. My brother would like to get a new facility built, and he wants to make sure that it's all on his land so that he can avoid any legal issues. I'll share this with him so that he can look further into his options for having a survey conducted to help him.

I loved that you mentioned that when you are working on a development project that is large, you need to make sure it is properly prepared and that is why you need a land surveyor. The other night, one of my friends mentioned that the land she owns has recently been prepared for construction and that she needs some surveying done. Personally, I think the best option for her would be to find a professional online so they can do this for her.

It's great to know that a land surveying service will help perform a construction survey to make the development project more efficient, My father-in-law owns a piece of land that he wants to use to build some commercial offices. If he does, I will mention to him about hiring a land survey company to help him reduce errors in the project.

My parents are looking to develop some of their farmland into homes. As you mentioned, it would be a good idea to have a topographic survey done so they have all the information of the land. I will have to bring this up with them, and see what they say.

My uncle has a lot of home improvement projects that he wants to work on and he would really like to build a shed but isn't sure of how big he can make it. He would really like to get his land surveyed and find the boundaries so that he can know his limits. I liked what you said about how he might need to get a construction survey so that he is more efficient and has more precise plans and measurements.

I like what you said about getting a construction survey done so that you can reduce errors while building. My sister has been telling me about how she wants to get a new office built soon. I'll share this information with her so that she can look into her options for professionals who can help her with this.

I liked it when you shared that comprehensive land surveying is done when you need to know every particular detail of the land. This will ensure that you get the right information before starting the project there. I would like to think if a company needs to work on a project, it should consider hiring a reliable service that can offer a comprehensive land assessment.

Thank you for pointing out that when considering land surveying services, it is important for us to determine what type of land surveyor we need. My wife and I are planning to build our dream home on a plot of land that I inherited from my late father. But, seeing how he never properly measured his plot and mark them, I think it would benefit us to hire a boundary surveyor to help mark our plot to avoid any dispute or confusion.

I loved how you mentioned that the most important land surveyor job is a boundary assessment. My husband and I are wanting to loo into adding a room to our home in a couple of weeks, and we want to make sure that we can stay within our boundaries. We'll have to look into hiring a land surveying service that can help us with making sure that we stay within our boundaries.

It's good to know that surveyors are commonly hired to plan sites. My cousin is in charge of developing a near part of the town he just moved to. He asked if I knew any surveyors but it threw me off because I didn't think they helped plan sites. Thanks for correcting me, I'll help him find some really good ones.
