A land surveyor-expert is sworn in and may carry out official boundary demarcations, draw up valuations and make legal determinations within their field of expertise. A land surveyor mainly carries out technical surveys, for example on large construction sites, but may not establish official property boundaries without the required accreditation. At TOPO4D, we work as sworn land surveyor-experts.
What does a land surveyor do?
A land surveyor accurately measures land, buildings and infrastructure. This measurement data is used for building plans, road works, terrain models and other technical projects.
A sworn land surveyor-expert is not always required for this type of survey.
What is a sworn land surveyor-expert allowed to do?
A land surveyor-expert holds the required professional qualifications, has taken the legal oath and is registered with the Order of Land Surveyor-Experts.
In addition to technical surveys, a land surveyor-expert may also carry out tasks reserved by law, such as:
- Official demarcation of property boundaries.
- Drawing up and signing certain boundary and survey plans for notarial deeds.
- Preparing plans for parcel changes.
A land surveyor-expert can also value real estate and draw up technical findings or expert reports. Consider, for example, a VLABEL valuation, in which an accredited valuation expert determines the value of a property for an inheritance. Not all of these activities are reserved exclusively for land surveyor-experts.
When do you need a land surveyor-expert?
For a technical site survey, a land surveyor may be sufficient. Do you want to have a plot boundary officially established, divide a piece of land or have a boundary demarcation carried out? Then call in a sworn land surveyor-expert.
At TOPO4D, we combine accurate site measurements with the necessary legal expertise. Discover our land surveyor-expert services or get in touch for advice on your project.
