The Land Surveying Act is a law that establishes rules and standards for professionals who measure and map land, known as licensed land surveyors. It ensures these professionals accurately define property boundaries, create surveys, and record land information to prevent disputes and protect property rights. The Act sets licensing requirements, ethical guidelines, and procedures to maintain high standards within the profession. Essentially, it provides a legal framework to ensure land surveying is performed reliably, consistently, and responsibly, safeguarding property owners, developers, and the public.
