Land surveyors are required to follow a set of standard procedures and codes to ensure accurate results. Part of this protocol is the use of high-quality and proven equipment and tools, including the latest technologies and devices, such as GPS and high-definition 3D laser scanners. Experienced land surveyors in Washington are constantly up-to-date with these methods and have invested in high-end equipment to deliver fast and precise data. They are able to be versatile and capable of providing detailed results for many applications, such as deformation analysis, condition and damage assessment, and updating or creating as-built documentation.
Three-dimensional images offer more depth and detail to the results of a land survey, making high-definition 3D laser scanning a highly preferred method to obtain accurate data about a property. It is currently one of the most advanced and updated among land surveying methods used in Washington, and it is preferred by discerning clients for its ability to provide results faster and more accurately than what traditional survey methods can. With 3D laser scanning, builders, project developers, and builders can accurately survey a parcel of land that has already been used or built on, but needs further examination for remodeling, renovation, or demolition.
Global positioning system is another technology and method offered by experienced land surveyors in Washington. When adopted into land surveying, GPS provides a scientific technique to determine and evaluate the three-dimensional or terrestrial position of points, and the distances and angles between them. The tool works directly through our satellites, which deliver signals to the surveyor’s receiver. Signals are then transmitted to the surveyor’s data collector to store the information to be downloaded into a computer.
A land surveying firm in Washington may claim to offer 3D land surveying and GPS land surveying methods, but before you hire them, make sure that they are trusted local service providers and that the services are provided by certified and highly trained land surveyors. Make sure that they get a lot of repeat business and referrals, too, and that they are established professional land surveyors in the state, with at least two to three decades of experience in the industry.
