Land Surveyors gauge and depict the topography of the land. They gather information for building and Civil Engineering projects to create precise site layouts. They will be a part of a dynamic, technologically cutting-edge profession as a Surveyor.A Land Surveyor's typical roles are listed below:<ul><li>Party Chief: They make observations and keep track of heights and distances, providing the contractor with precise location information for a new system or construction.</li><li>Surveyor: They use reference points to measure terrain properties like depth and form. To confirm information from on-site surveys, they look at earlier land records. Additionally, surveyors create maps and reports and show their findings to clients.</li></ul>

The Land Survey equipment market will increase by 6.7% annually in 2021, with a worth of 6 billion dollars for the sector as a whole. Sales of land survey equipment are predicted to grow at a CAGR (Compound annual growth rate) of 7.8% between 2021 and 2031, according to a Future Market Insights (FMI) report. The report estimates that by 2031, the global market's value for Land Survey equipment will be $12.8 billion.

Salary Breakup

Most of the time land surveyors work for engineering, land development or construction companies. They perform boundary surveys, primary surveys, construction staking and other relevant tasks. They must make accurate measurements and determine property boundaries accurately, as well as read construction drawings and ask architects assigned to the project any relevant questions regarding construction drawings. Land surveyors must provide data related to location, elevation, gravitation and other metrics, and they may be required to use global positioning systems (GPS) to determine longitudes and latitudes of relevant boundaries and features of the locations being surveyed. Some land surveyors use helicopters for land surveying, and they may need to train assistants to perform surveys and draft maps.
