ALTA SURVEY

An ALTA survey is a standard for conducting land surveys. It is set and approved by The American Land Title Association (ALTA) and the National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS). Professionals in the construction industry, including lenders, use ALTA surveys as references for conducting their surveys.

An ALTA survey focuses on collecting and recording property data through records and physical surveys. This helps companies cater to their needs when doing insurance dealings.

It lists down all essential details, including easements, improvement areas, and several aspects related to property ownership and use. You can verify your title survey by comparing it with an ALTA land survey, as it gives you more clarity on what to include and exclude.

Field Investigation

The next step is to watch out for original survey markers and find boundary lines. This process is typically challenging and consumes a significant amount of time based on the land dynamics and features. When surveyors identify the field proofs they were looking for, they start analyzing them. As the survey is finalized, it includes all the land details like access points, encroachment risks, parking spaces, fences, etc.
