B AND B SURVEYING COMPANY provides Land Title Surveys under the Texas Society of Professional Surveyors manual of practice. This type of survey is typically required by most lenders and Title Insurance Firms in the State of Texas for a Land Title transaction. A copy of Schedule "A" and "B" of the Title Commitment are required to be forwarded to the Land Surveyor for this type of survey. Generally if you provide us with your Realtor's name and contact information we can obtain this information for you. See below for information regarding the rules and required content for this type of survey.

TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEYS in Texas The purpose of a TOPOGRAPHIC SURVEY is to gather survey data about the natural and man-made features of the land, as well as its elevations. From this information a three-dimensional map may be prepared. The topographic map is prepared in the office after collecting the field data or it may be prepared right away in the field by plane table. The work usually consists of the following:

1. Establishing horizontal and vertical control that will serve as the framework of the survey

2. Determining enough horizontal location and elevation (usually called side shots) of ground points to provide enough data for plotting contours when the map is prepared

3. Locating natural and man-made features that may be required by the purpose of the survey

4. Computing distances, angles, and elevations

5. Drawing the topographic map.
