Types of Engineering Surverying

  1.  Topographic Surveys: provide information on the physical features of a
    land, such as its contours, elevations, and slopes.
  2. Hydrographic Surveys: study the depth, currents, and tides of bodies of
    water, including rivers, lakes, and oceans.
  3.  Geodetic Surveys: determine the exact location and orientation of points
    on the Earth’s surface using precise measurement techniques.
  4.  Geotechnical Surveys: assess the composition, structure, and stability
    of soil and rock beneath the surface of a site.
  5.  Boundary Surveys: determine the precise location of property lines,
    boundaries, and rights-of-way.
  6.  Cadastral Surveys: measure and record land ownership, boundaries, and
    rights-of-way for legal and governmental purposes.
  7.  Construction Surveys: provide critical information for the planning and
    execution of construction projects, including site preparation, building
    placement, and alignment of structures.
  8. Geological Surveys: study the physical and natural characteristics of
    the Earth’s crust, including its minerals, rocks, and geologic processes.
  9.  Photogrammetric Surveys: use aerial and satellite imagery to create maps
    and digital models of the Earth’s surface.
  10.  Mine Surveying: measure and map mines and mining operations, including
    shafts, tunnels, and ore deposits.
