Land Survey Services We Provide
Land surveys serve different purposes depending on the transaction, project, or regulatory requirement involved. Aerial Land Surveying provides the following survey types across Long Island:
- Boundary Surveys – Boundary surveys establish property lines and identify improvements relative to those boundaries. These surveys can help resolve property line disputes, verify deed descriptions, support fence or wall installation, and ensure compliance with zoning setback requirements.
- Title Surveys (Mortgage Surveys) – Title surveys verify that property descriptions match physical boundaries and identify any encroachments, easements, or other conditions that could affect ownership or property value. Lenders and title companies frequently require these surveys for real estate transactions.
- ALTA Surveys – ALTA surveys follow standards established by the American Land Title Association and provide comprehensive detail about property boundaries, improvements, utilities, easements, access, and zoning compliance. These surveys are common in commercial real estate transactions where lenders and title companies need detailed information for risk assessment.
- Topographic Surveys – Topographic surveys show land contours, elevations, and physical features including both natural elements and man-made improvements. These surveys provide the information needed for site planning, drainage design, grading plans, and architectural work.
- Elevation Surveys and Spot Elevation Surveys – Elevation surveys determine the height of land or structures relative to established benchmarks. Spot elevation surveys identify the elevation at specific locations on a property. These surveys support construction planning, flood zone analysis, and regulatory compliance.
- FEMA Elevation Certificates (Flood Certificates) – FEMA elevation certificates document the elevation of structures in relation to flood zones. These certificates are required for flood insurance determinations and can affect insurance rates for properties in designated flood zones.
- Property Corner Stakeouts – Property corner stakeouts place physical markers at property corners to clearly indicate boundary lines. These markers help contractors, fence installers, and property owners work within correct boundaries during construction or improvements.
- Health Department Surveys – Health department surveys document site conditions required for septic system permits, certificates of occupancy, or other municipal health department approvals. These surveys identify property boundaries, setbacks, well locations, and site features relevant to health department review.
- Permit Surveys – Permit surveys document existing conditions and proposed improvements for building permit applications. These surveys can also be used to retroactively document improvements made without permits when seeking after-the-fact approval.
- Subdivision and Lot Split Surveys – Subdivision surveys establish new property boundaries when dividing one parcel into multiple lots. These surveys must comply with local zoning regulations, meet municipal planning board requirements, and provide the documentation needed for subdivision approval.
- Architectural Surveys – Architectural surveys provide detailed information about property features including elevations, subsurface utilities, and sanitary systems. These surveys support site planning and architectural design work.
- Property Corner Monument Installation – Monument installation places permanent or semi-permanent markers at property corners to establish long-term boundary identification. These monuments provide durable boundary markers that remain visible over time.
We also offer what’s known as our “Builder’s Package.” Our Builder’s Package combines multiple survey services commonly needed for construction projects, including existing conditions surveys, foundation stakeouts, and final surveys. This package provides efficiency for builders and developers managing multiple survey requirements.
Each survey type serves specific purposes and meets different regulatory or transactional requirements. Our surveying team can help you determine which survey type fits your project needs.

Working With Aerial Land Surveying
Land survey projects begin with understanding what you need and how the survey will be used. Our team discusses your specific requirements, timeline expectations, and any particular concerns or questions about your property. We provide information about which survey type fits your needs, what the process involves, and what timeline to expect.
Survey work involves both field data collection and office work to process that data into final survey documents. Field work includes measuring property boundaries, documenting physical features, operating survey equipment, and placing markers when required. Office work includes analyzing collected data, researching property records, preparing survey maps, and producing final documentation that meets professional surveying standards.
Throughout the process, you can contact our team with questions or requests for updates. We maintain communication with property owners, real estate professionals, contractors, and other project stakeholders to ensure everyone has the information they need when they need it.
Once the survey is complete, you receive documentation that includes property boundary information, physical feature locations, and any other data relevant to your specific survey type. This documentation can be provided to lenders, title companies, contractors, architects, engineers, municipal officials, or other parties who need survey information for your transaction or project.
