Land Survey Drafting Services
Your field crew collects the data; we turn it into finished ALTA, boundary, topographic and plat drawings, drafted to your CAD standards and back on your desk by morning.
More Surveys Out the Door, Without More Drafters
For most surveying firms, the bottleneck is not field time. It is the office. Crews come back with data faster than drafters can process it, the backlog grows, and licensed surveyors end up drafting late into the evening instead of reviewing, quoting and winning work. Our land survey drafting services remove that bottleneck, from boundary survey drafting and topographic survey drafting to ALTA, plat and LiDAR survey drafting.
We act as your outsourced drafting department. You send field data, notes and redlines; our survey drafters build the linework, annotate it to your standards, set up the sheets and run a QA check before delivery. Your surveyor reviews, signs and sends. Because our team works while you are offline, a file uploaded at the end of the day is usually back the next morning, so your turnaround to clients gets shorter, not longer.
What We Deliver
Every common survey type, drafted from your data and your template.
ALTA/NSPS Survey Drafting
Title survey drawings with Table A items, plotted Schedule B exceptions, easements, encroachments, zoning and flood notes, and the certification block.
Boundary Survey Drafting
Property lines with bearings and distances, record versus measured calls, monuments found and set, easements, rights-of-way, adjoiner information and easement exhibits.
Topographic Survey Drafting
Contours, spot elevations, breaklines and TIN surfaces, plus buildings, trees, utilities and drainage features, ready for engineers to design on.
Plat and Subdivision Drafting
Final plats, replats and lot splits with lot and block geometry, curve and line tables, dedications and notes formatted for recording.
Mortgage and As-Built Surveys
Fast-turnaround drawings for residential closings and post-construction as-built surveys showing improvements against the boundary.
LiDAR Survey Drafting
Linework, breaklines and surfaces extracted from LiDAR, drone and laser scan point clouds, cleaned and drafted to your survey standards.
Software We Use
We draft in the platform you already use and deliver native files, so there is no conversion step and nothing for your team to clean up. Point files come in as CSV, TXT or your data collector export; field codes are processed with your description keys or field-to-finish library.
Your Standards, Not Ours
Every surveying firm has its own look. Before the first job we set up your template, layer names, line types, text styles, symbol library, title block and standard notes. Then we apply them consistently. After the first two or three projects most clients stop sending style corrections altogether.
- Your layer and symbol standards
- Your title block and certification wording
- Your legend, abbreviations and note blocks
Our Land Survey Drafting Process
Upload field data
Point files, notes, deeds, title documents and your template, by email, link or our form.
Scope and quote
We review the data, flag anything missing and confirm a fixed price and delivery time.
Draft and annotate
Linework, labels, tables, notes and sheet layout, to your standards.
QA, deliver, revise
Closure and annotation checks, then DWG and PDF delivery. Redlines turned around fast.
Turnaround and Quotes
Standard boundary, mortgage and small topographic drawings are usually returned overnight. ALTA surveys, large topographic sites and multi-lot plats are scheduled by scope, with the delivery time agreed before work begins. Same-day rush support is available when file readiness allows.
Pricing is a fixed quote per drawing, so you know the cost before you commit. Firms with steady volume can switch to a dedicated drafter on a monthly rate. See how our pricing works and what drives CAD drafting cost.
