Land surveyors use a range of tools and techniques such as total-stations, GPS, other conventional and modern instruments to measure distances, angles, elevations and other properties. To establish maps that can be used by others, total station survey software, GIS Mapping software etc. are used.
Surveying and Mapping comprise geospatial measurement and representation that includes land surveying, photogrammetry, remote sensing, cartography, global positioning systems (GPS), geographic information systems (GIS), and parts of geography and civil engineering.
Total Station Survey Software combines Electromagnetic Distance Measuring instruments and Electronic Theodolite. It is used to measure horizontal angles, vertical angles, and the sloping distance of an object to the instrument.
Geographic Information Systems or GIS are central repositories for data that are used for analysis in planning, surveying, construction, and management. These survey mapping software enable users to search for information about particular geographical areas, edit the data, analyze spatial information, and create maps, charts as well as reports. Surveying helps at the very first level of the process to collect the ground level data for further processing in GIS solutions.
Land surveying software aids in processing the land survey data to make it meaningful for engineering or other required purposes.
A land survey comprises of measurement of both man-made and natural features using the principles of mathematics, geometry, and other sciences. There are different forms of survey mapping such as boundary surveys, construction surveys, location surveys, site planning surveys, subdivision surveys, and topographic surveys.
