Surveying is the process of measuring and mapping the physical features of the earth’s surface. It involves the use of various instruments and techniques to collect and analyze data related to the terrain, boundaries, and other characteristics of a piece of land. The collected data is then used to create maps, establish property boundaries, and develop engineering and construction plans. Surveying plays a critical role in many industries, including construction, mining, forestry, and environmental management. The various types of surveying include land surveying, topographic surveying, hydrographic surveying, and geodetic surveying. Surveying professionals use a range of tools and technologies to collect data accurately and efficiently.
