If you are in the US, research what is legal for you to do without licenses and certifications. Just because the surveyors won’t come out to your project doesn’t mean that they wont happily sue you if they are able.
By all means, design away on your own property. But I would be very careful about offering services for hire for which your state requires accreditation.
In Washington, surveying without a license is illegal. I am not a surveyor, nor do I employ one. Photogrammetry does not require a lic in WA . It does in some states.
They are too busy and their schedules are booked. The point I was making is there is a huge opening for value added services.
There are no restrictions in offering value added services like initial design/drafting of house layouts, drone Imagery, 3d simulations, barn dimensions, floor plans, driveway layouts, etc. None of the services I listed above are offered by local surveying companies.
I’m not planning on offering “survey” work to clients. Most of the lots around where I’m at have clear boundaries and corners.
I am trying to figure out how to accurately determine my lots corners. If I can do that I wouldn’t need a surveyor to begin with. I can try and figure it out myself if a survey guy is going to take forever to show up.
The problem is one corner has no boundary marker and another corner has a boundary marker in the wrong location. It’s off by 20-30 ft. The other two corners which border the road look accurate.
Hi Maverick ! If you’re in the CONUS, you can download free LIDAR data here… you state may have all the elevation data you’ll ever need. You’ll need some specialized software like Global Mapper to view the LIDAR data.
As far as surveying goes, survey all you want on your own property. Boundaries and boundary corners should be left to the professionals. Your boundaries and boundary corners are also your neighbors. You’ll open yourself up to legal action by playing amateur surveyor.
