What does a land surveyor do?
+
A land surveyor measures and maps land to establish legal boundaries, support development projects, and provide critical spatial data. Whether defining property lines, setting out construction sites, or creating 3D models for planning, surveyors ensure accuracy at every stage of a project.
What are property boundaries, and how do I find them?
+
Property boundaries define the legal limits of a piece of land. They are recorded in official land titles and survey plans. To find your boundaries, you can check your property's survey plan or title deed. For precise identification, a licensed surveyor can conduct a boundary survey using advanced measurement techniques.
What are encroachments and improvements?
+
An encroachment occurs when a structure or feature, such as a fence or building, extends beyond a property boundary onto neighboring land. Improvements refer to modifications or additions made to a property, like driveways, landscaping, or extensions. If you're unsure about encroachments or planning improvements, a surveyor can confirm your property limits.
What is an easement?
+
An easement is a legal right allowing a person or organization to use part of someone else’s land for a specific purpose. Common easements include access roads, drainage, or utility lines. Easements are recorded on property titles, and a surveyor can help identify their location and impact on your property.
What is a survey plan?
+
A survey plan is a detailed map showing property boundaries, dimensions, and any relevant features like easements or encroachments. It is an official document registered with land authorities and is essential for property transactions, development, and legal purposes.
What is a Form 18?
+
A Form 18 is a legal document used in land surveying to declare and submit survey data for official registration. It ensures that the survey complies with regulatory requirements and accurately represents the property boundaries.
What is a cadastral survey, and when do I need one?
+
A cadastral survey determines and records property boundaries for legal and land ownership purposes. You may need one when: • Buying or selling property • Resolving boundary disputes • Subdividing land • Developing or improving a property • A cadastral survey ensures legal clarity and compliance with property regulations.
Is cadastral surveying regulated?
+
Yes, cadastral surveying is highly regulated to maintain accuracy and legal integrity. In Australia, licensed surveyors must adhere to government and land registry guidelines to ensure that property boundaries are correctly recorded and enforceable.
What is engineering surveying, and why is it important?
+
Engineering surveying involves measuring and mapping land to guide construction projects, including roads, buildings, and infrastructure. It ensures structures are positioned correctly, align with design plans, and comply with safety and regulatory standards.
How does spatial surveying benefit my project?
+
Spatial surveying uses advanced technology like GPS, 3D mapping, and LiDAR to collect precise land data. It benefits projects by: • Improving accuracy in planning and design • Reducing risks of errors or misalignment • Enhancing efficiency in construction and development • Supporting informed decision-making with detailed site data
What areas do you service?
+
We provide surveying services across Queensland, catering to residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects. If you’re unsure whether we cover your area, please contact us.
How long does a survey take?
+
The duration of a survey depends on factors like property size, terrain complexity, and the type of survey required. Small residential boundary surveys typically take a few hours to a day, while larger or more complex surveys may take several days to complete. Our team will provide an estimated timeline based on your project needs.
