Land surveying is the process of measuring and mapping the land's surface to determine property boundaries, topography, and features. Surveyors use specialized tools and techniques to collect data, which helps in planning construction, land development, and legal disputes. The information gathered during land surveying is essential for various projects, including real estate transactions, road construction, and environmental studies. Accurate surveys ensure that land is used efficiently and legally, providing a clear understanding of property lines and land characteristics.
