2 Classification of Surveys
- Geodetic Survey
- Plane Survey
Difference between geodetic and plane surveys.
geodetic survey performed HIGHER ACCURACY than plane survey
Survey that covers a small part of the earth’s surface, curvature NEED NOT be take into account
Plane Survey
Survey where eath’s curvature MUST BE TAKEN considered
Geodetic Survey

Surveys which are made of SETTING LAND BOUNDARIES on the ground and determine areas of land parcels
CADASTRAL SURVEY (Land Survey)
A survey also used for LOCATING and IDENTIFYING property lines.
CADASTRAL SURVEY (Land Survey)
A survey made for discovering the SHAPE OF THE GROUND and plotting it on a map.
TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEY
Surveys of the sites where the CONSTRUCTIONS of an engineering nature takes place.
ENGINEERING SURVEY (Construction Survey)
Surveys of LINEAR CONSTRUCTIONS: railroad, highways, canals, and others where transportation takes place.
ROUTE SURVEY
Survey for locating the working BELOW EARTH’S SURFACE as in mines, tunnels, and aqueducts.
UNDERGROUND SURVEY
Survey which utilize photographs taken from an AIRPLANE or PHOTOGRAMMETRY.
AERIAL SURVEY
Survey made for determining the shape of the bottom of LAKES, RIVERS, HARBORS, and OCEANS.
HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEY
It involves the PRECISE IDENTIFICATION OF ESTABLISHED LANDS and ITS CORNERS.
RELOCATION SURVEY
This kind of survey is to REESTABLISH THE BOUNDARIES of a tract for which a survey has previously been made.
RELOCATION SURVEY
Process where SPLITTING A TRACT of land into SMALLER PARCELS.
SUBDIVISION SURVEY (PSD)
Shows MONUMATION and SURVEY DATA on a map in conformance with local subdivision ordinance and the subdivision map act.
SUBDIVISION SURVEY (PSD)
Splitting TWO or MORE tract of land into smaller parcels.
CONSOLIDATION SUBDIVISION SURVEY (Csd)
