What is a land surveyor?

A “Land Surveyor” is a person who is qualified by knowledge of mathematics, physical and applied sciences and the principles of land surveying, and who is licensed to practice or offer to practice the profession of land surveying.

What different types of land surveys are there? What services does Franklin Surveys offer?

Franklin Surveys is a full service land surveying firm, offering a comprehensive range of services from Property/Boundary Surveys to FEMA Elevation Certificates. The following is a list of some of the types of surveying services we offer in Connecticut.

Topographic Surveys – We can provide any required topographic accuracy standard:
