Rincon Associates Inc. - Land Survey in Alamosa County, Colorado, USA Upon hiring a land surveyor he or they will make actual land surveying measurements and evaluate local and state codes and interpret all that information to make sure the surveying conforms and set surveyors corner markers with the surveyors state registration number attached to the land surveying marker. An example of the progression of duties surveyors generally go through are land surveying research for existing surveying maps recorded at county court houses, highway departments, state agencies, US-Bureau of Land Management, and an onsite visit to familiarize the surveyors with the task requested. Each land surveying service may not require all of the above and part of the surveyors job should be to weed out only what the individual land owner needs and/or desires to keep the cost proportional to the task. www.rinconsurveying.com   (351 words)

Construction Surveying & Layout - CBC-CSL Land surveying allows a surveyor to precisely determine the area of any part of the earth's surface, the lengths and bearings (direction) of all the boundary lines, the contours of features of the land, and to accurately describe all of this information on a map. Deeds describe the initial point of the survey and use bearings to describe the boundaries of the land in question. In recent years, county officials have required that surveys be referenced to the legal comers of townships, and bearings and distances given in the deed (legal description) such that the surveyed area be satisfactorily closed by one of several methods (which will be explained later). www.nwbuildnet.com /stores/bookloft/field/csl.html   (2693 words)

Also, the angles on a transit were read off of a circular metal plate, graduated in degrees and minutes, while the theodolite replaced the metal plate with an internal etched glass plate and the ability to read an angle through the eyepiece via a series of mirrors and lenses. plsurvey.com /surveyinghistory2.html   (1011 words)
