  Surveying - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Boundary survey: The actual positions of existing marks on land (typically iron rods or concrete monuments in the ground, but also tacks in trees, pipes, and manholes) are measured, and a map is drawn from the data.
Plats are usually discussed back and forth between the developer and the surveyor until they are agreed on, at which point pins are driven into the ground to mark the lot corners and curve ends and the plat is recorded in the cadastre (USA, elsewhere) or land registry (UK).
Surveyors must have a thorough knowledge of algebra, basic calculus, geometry, and trigonometry.
