Introduction to Subdivision and Layout Design Survey
Subdivision and layout design survey involves the process of dividing a large piece of land into smaller plots for development purposes. This survey is essential when planning residential layouts, commercial areas, or industrial zones. It helps define individual plots, road alignments, drainage systems, open spaces, and utility zones within a land parcel.
Purpose of Subdivision Survey
The primary purpose of a subdivision survey is to ensure the land is divided accurately and in accordance with local development regulations. It allows landowners and developers to convert large land areas into properly marked, usable plots that can be sold, registered, or developed with clear boundaries and access routes.


Process of Layout Design Survey
The layout design survey begins with a detailed field survey of the total land area. Boundaries are verified, and the natural terrain is studied. After that, a layout is prepared showing roads, plot divisions, open spaces, and other features. The design is then marked on the ground using survey instruments for further development or approval.
Tools and Equipment Used
To carry out accurate layout design, instruments such as Total Station, GPS receivers, and digital measuring tools are used. These tools help in measuring distances, angles, and setting out the exact position of roads and plot boundaries as per the layout plan.


Applications of Layout Surveys

Benefits of Subdivision and Layout Survey
