Boundary Surveys are used to identify the property's boundary lines. This type of survey is generally used when the property owner wants to identify their property lines but can also be done in instances where there is a property dispute, or to conform to zoning laws and building codes and development of the property.
Subdivision surveys are done to divide a parcel of land into smaller lots. This is typically done when the property owner is trying to sell or give away a piece of the property. They can be as simple as dividing one parcel in half or as complex as dividing a large parcel into several different smaller parcels.
A topographic survey locates all surface features of a property, and depicts all natural features and elevations. These features include contours/slopes, utilities, buildings, roads/highways, wells, driveways, as well as natural attributes such as trees and bodies of water.
Construction Stakeout or building surveying is done to provide dimensional control for all stages of construction work, including the stake out of reference points and markers that will guide the construction of new structures such as roads, rails, or buildings.
An Elevation Certificate documents important features of your property, including its location, flood zone, building characteristics and, most importantly, the elevation of its lowest floor.
An Elevation Certification is needed to know your building’s elevation compared to the estimated height floodwaters will reach in a major flood helps provide a true picture of the status of compliance with floodplain ordinances so as to determine your flood risk.
Asbuilt Surveys are done during construction to document the location of structures as they are built.

ALTA/NSPS Surveys are done pursuant to Alta/NSPS minimum standard requirements in order to provide important information necessary for producing a title insurance policy for a Buyer and their Lender as well as showing any potential issues with the land and the improvements.
Surface Modeling requires highly specialized experience, techniques, and methods that use computer-aided-design (CAD) software, along with other specialized software to create Triangulated Irregular Networks (TIN). It then utilizes the resulting TIN to develop mapping and quantity calculations to meet the client's specification and needs.
Wetland Surveys identify, characterize, and map wetlands on a property. It involves a combination of fieldwork, data analysis, and consultation with regulatory agencies. During the fieldwork, experts evaluate the site’s characteristics, including soil type, vegetation, hydrology, and topography to indicate the presence of wetlands.
