Do you ever wonder what this type of survey is? It requires a lot more detail than a residential survey. Some of the requirements may include:

1. Monuments placed at all major corners of the boundary of the property.
2. Address of the property.
3. Flood zone classification (with proper annotation based on Federal Flood Insurance Rate Maps or the state or local equivalent) depicted by scaled location and graphic plotting only.
4. Gross land area.
5. Current zoning classification, building setback requirements, height, and floor space.
6. Exterior dimensions of all buildings at ground level, square footage of the exterior footprint of such, and / or the measured height of all buildings.
7. Locating parking lots and striping, including handicapped, motorcycle, regular parking areas, billboards, signs, swimming pools, and landscaped areas.
8. We must call Dig-Right to have all utilities marked on the ground and show them on our plat. This includes the location of all underground utilities. We also include on our plat all above ground utilities, telephone pedestals, electric meters, patios, porches, and etc. This is some of the information collected at the survey site, for this type of survey.
