Surveyors use a variety of precision instruments to get accurate measurements that can be used for everything from mapping and modeling to creating floor plans. Some of them include but may not be limited to:

• Theodolites — While they’re rarely used today, these tools are the predecessors of modern survey instruments. They can measure angles along horizontal and vertical planes, which allows them to get very accurate distance and location measurements of specific points.
• Total Stations— These tools are upgraded and more comprehensive versions of theodolites by combining them with Electronic Distance Measurement (EDM) technology. They also come with microprocessors that can be used to store data.
• Transit Levels— One of the simplest surveying instruments being used to today, these tools can be used in a number of applications. Not only can they measure horizontal lines and points, but they can also take relative measurement levels.

The instruments used in surveying are designed to take accurate measurements that can be used for mapping, modeling, and even floor plan design. Many of them have other uses besides surveying, so you might see them being used as part of a survey but will still be used for getting measurements. While some types of Geomax survey instruments are more advanced than others, it’s not necessary to use them on every single job.

Surveyors have to gather a variety of information, which can include but may not be limited to:

• The precise boundaries of a property.
• The specific location of structures, additions, and other improvements.
• Any slope or geographical features that could impact land use.
• The location of easements and utilities.
• Whether the land is on a floodplain.

They need to use precision instruments to get accurate measurements over long distances, which has been made easier through the use of technology that can improve accuracy while saving time.
