Your Guide Boundary Identification Surveys in Queensland

You've been told you need a boundary identification survey - what next? Boundary Identification Surveys usually come up when a neighbourhood dispute turns legal. Perhaps you are concerned about a neighbour encroaching onto your land? ONF Surveyors have been providing accurate, dependable boundary surveys for more than twenty years. Our surveys have always "stood up in court" so you can feel confident that you're working with accurate information. So, what's involved?

Research and Documentation:

A Boundary Identification Survey begins with extensive research. Your dedicated residential surveyor delves into historical records, deeds, and previous surveys related to the property. This information lays the groundwork for the survey and helps establish a comprehensive understanding of the property’s history and boundaries. The surveyor who researches your property's history, does the work. This makes a big difference because it means that the professional working out in the field understands the challenges of the job.

Fieldwork and Measurements:

Once armed with historical insights, surveyors take to the field equipped with cutting-edge tools. Total stations, LiDAR Drone Surveying Technology and GPS technology are employed to measure and map the physical boundaries of the property. We map every aspect of the property in meticulous detail so you can feel confident that your land, is your land.

Boundary Markers and Identification:

During the fieldwork, surveyors identify and mark key boundary points creating physical representations of property line maps. You'll have access to physical markers, such as stakes or pins, so you can see your property lines clearly. If we need to place these markers in a neighbouring yard, we will first discuss this issue with you. If the neighbour refuses access or removes the markers, we may employ other means to represent the land boundary survey markers.

Land Contour Mapping:

Understanding the topography of the land is integral to a comprehensive Boundary Identification Survey. Surveyors utilise advanced mapping techniques to create detailed land contour survey. This information is invaluable for land use planning, construction projects, and assessing the overall usability of the property.

Easement and Covenant Assessment:

A Boundary Identification Survey goes beyond mere property lines; it also includes an assessment of easements and covenants. Surveyors identify and document any existing easements or restrictions on the property. This information is crucial for property owners, ensuring they are aware of any limitations on land use.

Survey Plan Compilation:

All the data collected during the survey is compiled into a detailed survey plan. This plan includes accurate measurements, boundary markers, and any relevant information discovered during the survey. The survey plan serves as a legal document, providing a clear representation of the property’s boundaries.

Client Consultation and Explanation:

At ONF Surveyors, we understand the importance of clear communication. After completing the survey, your dedicated surveyor will explain exactly what the outcome of your boundary identification survey is, and where the boundaries on your property lay. Should the boundary survey show an issue with a neighbouring property, your lawyers will have a "go to" contact during further litigation.
