Cadastral Surveys
Cadastral Surveys
Surveys that focus on legal boundaries of land, including property lines and ownership. They help in land registration, real estate development, and resolving boundary disputes.
Perimeter Survey
Perimeter Survey
One type of Cadastral Survey where the boundaries of a property are determined.
Boundary Identification Survey
Boundary Identification Survey
Another type of Cadastral Survey used to locate existing boundary lines for construction or legal purposes.

Study Notes
Cadastral/Legal Surveys
- Cadastral surveys define land ownership and property lines.
- Types include:
- Perimeter Surveys: Determine the outer boundaries of a land parcel.
- Boundary Identification Surveys: Locate and mark existing property lines.
- Boundary Investigation Surveys: Settle disputes about property lines.
- Applications:
- Land ownership and registration.
- Real estate development subdivisions.
- Solving boundary conflicts.
Topographical Surveys
- Topographical surveys map natural and man-made features on a land area.
- Include elevation and contour information.
- Depict features like buildings, roads, vegetation, and water bodies.
- Applications:
- Urban planning and land development.
- Infrastructure design (roads, bridges, drainage).
- Environmental analysis and flood studies.
Hydrographical Surveys
- Hydrographical surveys map underwater features and bodies of water.
- Measure depths, currents, and seabed characteristics.
- Applications:
- Navigation charting (ports, harbors, waterways).
- Marine construction (docks, offshore platforms).
- Flood control and aquatic ecosystem monitoring.
Construction/Layout Surveys
- Construction/layout surveys position structures and infrastructure on site.
- Ensure structures adhere to design specifications, placement, and orientation.
- Applications:
- Foundation and structure layout.
- Road, bridge, and utility line placement.
- Maintaining conformance to design plans.
As-Built/Final Surveys
- As-built surveys confirm if construction matches design specifications after completion.
- Applications:
- Records of finished construction projects.
- Ensuring adherence to zoning and design regulations.
- Documenting construction changes for future reference.
