What Does a Boundary Survey Actually Determine?
A boundary may look simple on a map. Finding it on the ground means tracing its origins and weighing the evidence that remains.
A professional land surveyor researches deeds, recorded plats, prior surveys, and relevant records, then searches the site for original monuments, earlier survey evidence, and signs of occupation—fences, buildings, and roads.
Together, that evidence helps the surveyor determine and document the boundary’s location.
