standards in surveying

Standards in surveying are established rules and guidelines that ensure measurements of land and structures are accurate, consistent, and reliable. They cover procedures, equipment calibration, safety, and data recording, helping surveyors produce precise maps and boundaries. These standards ensure that survey results are accepted universally, support legal decisions, and maintain quality across projects. Essentially, they set the quality benchmark for survey practices to guarantee trustworthiness and uniformity in land measurement and documentation.
