Surveying Services
Taylor Engineering LLC is capable of completing surveys of all sizes and complexities. Our four-man survey team has tackled land surveys spanning hundreds of acres, from establishing property boundaries to staking large-scale construction projects.
Boundary Survey
Topographic Survey
Boundary Survey
Boundary Surveys formally establish and define property lines and corners of a parcel of land. They also specify the extent of any encroachments or easements and may indicate any restrictions imposed on the property by local and state regulations. Boundary Surveys are often required for building fences, settling property disputes or acquiring a building permit.
ALTA Survey
Topographic Survey
Boundary Survey
ALTA Surveys are highly detailed land surveys that yield accurate information about the boundaries, easements, improvements, encroachments, and potential risks associated with a property, satisfying the minimum requirements of the American Land Title Association (ALTA) and the National Society of Professional Surveyors. ALTA Surveys are often required in commercial rest estate transactions to ensure legal compliance with lender and title insurance requirements.
Topographic Survey
Topographic Survey
Topographic Survey
Topographic Surveys are detailed, three-dimensional maps of a property that identify the location, size, and height of both natural features and man-made structures, including coordinates. They also use contour lines to represent elevation changes, helping engineers and architects design projects, manage drainage, and avoid construction errors. Topographic Surveys are often required for site development, subdivision plans, roadway design, and flood prevention.
Subdivision Plats
Construction Staking
Topographic Survey
Subdivision Plats are detailed, scaled maps that divide a large tract of land into smaller, buildable lots, showing streets, easements, and property boundaries. They are approved by local authorities and recorded to establish new property descriptions for selling land, designing subdivisions, and planning utilities. Subdivision Plats are often required for dividing property, development planning, utility and easement layout, legal recording, and lot consolidation.
Easements
Construction Staking
Construction Staking
Easements are legal, non-possessory rights for a specific person, entity, or the public to use a portion of another's land for a designated purpose. They can be permanent or temporary and can restrict how a landowner uses their property. Easements are often required to establish rights to utilities (i.e. power lines), ingress/egress (i.e. shared driveways) or public right-of-way (i.e. sidewalks).
Construction Staking
Construction Staking
Construction Staking
Construction Staking is the process of surveying and marking a construction site to translate design plans into physical ground markers. It uses total stations and GPS to place stakes indicating the precise location, elevation, and alignment for building foundations, roads, utilities, and grading. Construction Staking is often required during the site layout process.
Legal Descriptions
Legal Descriptions
Legal Descriptions
Legal Descriptions are the creation of precise, written statements that define the exact boundaries of a property and are recognized by law. They use deeds, titles, and mortgages to ensure that there is no ambiguity about what land is being owned or transferred. Legal Descriptions are often required to subdivide land, adjust property lines, correct errors, and create easements.
UAV Survey
Legal Descriptions
Legal Descriptions
UAV Surveys are a method of collecting high-resolution geospatial data using a drone equipped with specialized sensors like cameras or LiDAR. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) fly a pre-programmed path to capture data from above, which is processed into detailed maps and three-dimensional models. UAV Surveys are advantageous for maximizing speed and safety while minimizing labor cost.
GPS Capability
Legal Descriptions
GPS Capability
GPS Capability is a specialized set of satellite-based positioning technologies that allow surveyors to determine precise geographical coordinates (latitude, longitude, and elevation) with significant accuracy. It uses advanced techniques to eliminate any errors caused by atmospheric conditions and satellite timing. GPS Capability is advantageous because it maximizes speed and efficiency while not requiring a line-of-sight.
