Overview of Land Surveys

 

A map is a map, is a map … a plat map is also a map, a very special map.

Land Surveying is essentially the art and science of measuring and mapping land. A map is a graphic, two?dimensional representation of the surface of the earth. A plat map is a map that is prepared by or under the supervision of a land surveyor, usually for a specific legal purpose. This video reviews the difference between a regular map and a plat map and how land surveying uses these maps; as well as discusses what a survey should tell you.
