| civil engineering land surveying: A Guide to Understanding Land Surveys Stephen V. Estopinal, 2009 The nonsurveyor's definitive land survey sourcebook—now extensively updated Over the last several decades, the Internet has allowed individuals with a non-technical background to assume more control of land surveys. But without a clear understanding of how to accurately use land survey data, and faced with the challenges of communicating specific requirements to a professional land surveyor, conflicts often arise that lead to litigation. A Guide to Understanding Land Surveys bridges the ever-expanding communication gap between the users of land boundary information and professional land surveyors. This indispensable guide clearly explains the functions and procedures required in every survey (routine or otherwise), and the role of a surveyor in their investigation and re-establishment. It is a must-have resource for title attorneys, paralegals, realtors, government agents, and others who rely on the information gathered and presented by land surveys. Written in nontechnical language and supported by numerous line drawings, A Guide to Understanding Land Surveys not only helps readers gain a strong familiarity with a survey, plat, or land description, but enables them to accurately evaluate it, detect any inadequacies, and make the proper adjustments to obtain approval. The Third Edition of A Guide to Understanding Land Surveys has been expanded with thirty percent new material and is fully updated to reflect the latest practice guidelines and technology, including the use of GPS and GIS in land boundary re-establishment. Also included is important new material on how technology should be interpreted in assessing the quality and accuracy of a land survey. |
| civil engineering land surveying: Professional Surveyors and Real Property Descriptions Stephen V. Estopinal, Wendy Lathrop, 2011-09-13 The only modern guide to interpreting and writing real property descriptions for surveyors Technical land information is no longer the exclusive domain of professional surveyors. The Internet now houses a multitude of resources that nontechnical professionals—such as attorneys and realtors—access and implement on a daily basis. However, these professionals are trained in aspects of law and commerce that do not provide the proper education and experience to interpret and evaluate their land boundary information discoveries correctly. As a result, their analysis is often erroneous and the data misapplied—ultimately leading to confusion and costly litigation. Professional Surveyors and Real Property Descriptions attempts to bridge the ever-widening gap between the users of land boundary information and the land surveyors who produce it. An expert team of authors integrates the historic and legal background of real property interests with fundamental concepts of the surveying profession in a manner accessible for average readers. These provide the basics for both properly comprehending older descriptions and competently constructing complete and modern real property descriptions that foster better communication. Highlights in this book include: An in-depth exploration of historic descriptions and how to read them Coverage of the widely accepted ALTA/ACSM Land Boundary Survey standards and associated property descriptions A diverse collection of examples and practice scenarios An overview of the latest issues related to the use of GPS and GIS Written in easy-to-understand language, this practical resource assists nontechnical professionals in understanding exactly what a surveyor does and does not do, and serves as a valuable tool for obtaining the most satisfactory, accurate, and complete real property descriptions. |

| civil engineering land surveying: Thoreau the Land Surveyor Patrick Chura, 2010 An insightful study of how Thoreau's profession as a surveyor impacts his environmental sensibility and informs his literary works; further, Chura shows that the manuscript surveys and corresponding field notes are themselves worthy of literary analysis. --Sandra Harbert Petrulionis, coeditor of More Day to Dawn: Thoreau's Walden for the Twenty-first Century Chura's thorough understanding of the cultural import and physical practice of 19th-century surveying provides a fresh and interesting perspective on Thoreau's life and works. . . . .He combines a spry writing style with meticulous research in this delightful book, which introduces readers to another side of Thoreau's life and thought. Highly recommended. --G. D. MacDonald, Virginia State University Most books about Henry David Thoreau focus on his writing, philosophy, or literary vision, paying little attention to how he made a living while engaged in such transcendentalist pursuits. In Thoreau the Land Surveyor, Patrick Chura corrects this oversight. --Lorianne DiSabato, The New England Quarterly A scholarly book that's as beautiful as it is unput-downable. . . Not only is Chura a fine writer here, he is one heck of a historian. He enriches every page with carefully considered research. . . .I loved this book from start to finish. --Mike Tidwell, author of The Ponds of Kalambayi: An African Sojourn. An insightful study of how Thoreau's profession as a surveyor impacts his environmental sensibility and informs his literary works; further, Chura shows that the manuscript surveys and corresponding field notes are themselves worthy of literary analysis. This book on the significance of land surveying to Henry Thoreau's writing is one that we have long needed. Chura's practical experience as a surveyor combined with his literary scholarship makes him the perfect person to write it.--Richard J. Schneider, editor ofHenry David Thoreau: A Documentary Volume Henry David Thoreau, one of America's most prominent environmental writers, supported himself as a land surveyor for much of his life, parceling land that would be sold off to loggers. In the only study of its kind, Patrick Chura analyzes this seeming contradiction to show how the best surveyor in Concord combined civil engineering with civil disobedience. Placing Thoreau's surveying in historical context, Thoreau the Land Surveyor explains the cultural and ideological implications of surveying work in the mid-nineteenth century. Chura explains the ways that Thoreau's environmentalist disposition and philosophical convictions asserted themselves even as he reduced the land to measurable terms and acted as an agent for bringing it under proprietary control. He also describes in detail Thoreau's 1846 survey of Walden Pond. By identifying the origins of Walden in--of all places--surveying data, Chura re-creates a previously lost supporting manuscript of this American classic. |

| civil engineering land surveying: AutoCAD for Land Surveyors Harriet Mac Clarke, Javad Noormohammadi, 2020-06-16 Today, because of the development of electronic surveying systems such as total station devices, we no longer use drawing papers, drafting tables, T-Square rulers, Curve Ruler and the other handy drafting tools for drawing a map, and land surveying software such as Land Desktop, AutoCAD, SDR maps have replaced them very well, because they can meet the user's needs with more precision and speed, fewer errors and costs in the best way possible. For example, if errors are made while handy drafting and the drawing paper becomes unusable, we must start drawing from the beginning and it requires more time and money. But now using drawing software, maps are printed out only when they are free of drawing and computational errors. When errors are made, it is easy to undo them and we can save time and money more easily. We can also print the map out in different dimensions and scales and map generalizations according to the user's opinion and so on. Meanwhile, with its capabilities, AutoCAD drafting software helps the surveyors draw in the best way possible. It should be noted of course that AutoCAD has many other practical applications in various engineering and industrial fields such as civil engineering, construction, architecture, mechanical engineering, and other engineering sciences, and given the breadth of this powerful software, each user benefits from parts of the AutoCAD commands and capabilities, depending on their needs and demands. This matter encouraged me to serve the land surveying community by amassing this collection so that we can summarize and teach the AutoCAD commands and capabilities that are used in land surveying and cartography and analyze practical examples. It helps the land surveyors stop spending their time studying books that contain general content about AutoCAD and start learning applied AutoCAD. Having several years of experience in the field of land surveying and cartography of research and executive projects, the author was eager to familiarize the land surveyors with applied, fully functional AutoCAD and to help them learn the AutoCAD commands and capabilities that are practical for map drafting. I have used a lot of examples in the book for the learners and specialized exercises have also been explained in the final chapters.There is an important point to make about the presentation of the examples and exercises: It might be possible for you to find different solutions to solve the examples and exercises in the book and you might solve them using other software or methods. The purpose of presenting these examples and exercises is to help you master these commands. You can also use the commands for other purposes after mastering them.In this set of tutorials, additional topics and other parts of the software that are used in other engineering fields have been avoided. It has simply been collected to help land surveyors and the learning process. There are also other sources that enthusiasts can study to learn other uses of AutoCAD.I hope that you, dear readers, can meet your needs for conducting a land surveying project after reading this book carefully.Javad Noormohammadi |
