GENERAL SURVEYING SERVICES

Types of Survey Services

Boundary Survey

Perhaps the most important service provided by E.I.C. Surveying Co. surveying team is the boundary survey. A properly executed boundary survey is the basis for every successful development or land transaction, as it will relate the calls in the subject deed to the monumentation and evidence found on the ground. The survey will also disclose possible discrepancies and negative impacts to the title. A thorough boundary survey should always serve as the basis for any successful project.

Depending on the type of certificate needed on a boundary survey, the survey could also be referred to as a Title Survey, ALTA/ACSM Survey, Category 1A Survey, Tree Survey, or an As-Built Survey.

Topographic Survey

A Topographic Survey is required for determination of the relief of the terrain and to locate natural and cultural features on it. Spot elevation is taken on the property on a specific grid interval and is used as the basis for the engineering design of a Drainage Plan for the proposed development. Elevations and locations of adjacent roadways, paving and structures are also obtained during this type of survey, At least, one benchmark is set on site for future construction usually referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 unless otherwise specified. If requested, we can also generate contours on the survey at a specified contour interval that provides a graphical depiction of how an existing grade is draining.


We can also locate visible utilities (storm, sanitary, water, gas, power, etc.) at this juncture of the survey that will aid in the civil utility design of the proposed development.
