Are you aware what a land surveyor does or what land surveying is? Basically, surveying is the technique, professions, art and science of determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional position of a point and the distances and angles that are measured between them. This technique is used in order to establish the size of a plot of land and the buildability of it.
A land surveyor is an individual with the important task of verifying property lines so that you don’t build anything where you are not allowed to. To make these verifications, surveyors go out into the field to search for original property markers on the land (these are usually underground and contain details about who originally surveyed the land).
Land surveyors also do a lot of measurements and calculations around the property and the neighborhood. Plus, they search for and review city, county and state property records.
