It captures the changes and contours in elevation across the area.
While boundary surveys concentrate on horizontal measurements, topographic surveys focus on vertical elevation.
Conducting a Topo Survey
To carry out a topographic survey, a high-quality global positioning system (GPS) unit and an electronic distance measurement (EDM) total station theodolite (TST) are utilized to pinpoint the locations of various features depicted on the survey plan. The resulting topographic survey illustrates existing features, property lines, and contour lines that reflect the land’s topography.
