Property owners who want to divide their land into lots for sale or development must go through a process by which the creation of any parcel of land 10 acres or less in the area is considered a subdivision, and subject to local regulation; and includes the requirements for subdividing land, also known as platting. Platting is a term derived from the approval process involving final plats. Final plats are the 'big picture' plans which show the proposed lot, block, and include the necessary utility easements, and public right-of-ways. The final plat is the instrument that once recorded with the Register of Deeds, grants the authority to the subdivider to start selling lots to prospective purchasers.

This type of survey measures Elevation on a piece of property. It uses a known reference point, or benchmark, in which to compare the flood elevation of the subject property. Generally used for Flood Plain Information or Flood Insurance Requirements.

This document is prepared in conjunction with an Elevation Certificate and is submitted to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to exempt a Property (or improvements thereon) from the Flood Zone. This may remove the requirements lenders have for Flood Insurance.

Topographic Surveys are used to identify and map the contours of the ground and existing features on the surface of the earth or slightly above or below the earth's surface (i.e. trees, buildings, streets, walkways, manholes, utility poles, retaining walls, etc.).  If the purpose of the survey is to serve as a base map for the design of a residence or building of some type or design a road or driveway, it may be necessary to show perimeter boundary lines and the lines of easements on or crossing the property being surveyed, in order for a designer to accurately show zoning and other agency required setbacks.
