A Boundary Survey locates and establishes the lines and corners of a parcel of land as legally described in a deed or document of record.
This survey involves field and office work, locating or setting boundary corners, and preparing a plat of survey document showing all improvements as well as the relationship of possession lines (occupied lines) to record or title lines.
Original Survey, which establishes boundary lines within an original division of a tract of land that has therefore existed as one parcel and describes boundary lines of a parcel or tract of land for the first time.

Provide an accurate "existing conditions" survey of elevations and surfaces for site design and roadway plans.
Provide final as-built data to verify that the site was built in substantial conformance with proposed plans.
Our topographic surveys include existing ground elevations and contour lines, the location and elevation of existing utilities, and existing stormwater features, which are critical for the planning and design phases of land development, roadway and infrastructure projects.

A subdivision is a technical term that means legally dividing one parcel, or tract of land, into two or more lots, or land parcels.
A subdivision survey requires the retracement of the boundary of the parent tract by the subdividing surveyor and becomes an original survey upon the creation of new land parcels, blocks or lots.
Monumentation for subdivision surveys is mandatory according to Illinois statutes.
In Illinois, subdivisions are governed by and prepared in accordance with local subdivision control ordinances, governmental regulations and the Illinois Plat Act (765 ILCS 205).

As-Built Surveys, also called "Record Drawings" or "As-Constructed Record Drawings, " compare final measurement data to proposed engineering data to verify that the intent of the approved engineering design has been met.
All elevation data contained in the As-Built Survey must be referenced to the same vertical datum as the original design plans.
A copy of the approved engineering drawings becomes the base drawing for the As-Built Survey.
Design data is "lined out" and the record (As-Built) data is shown next to each "lined out" design dimension or elevation.
