I need a licensed land-survey professional in Philadelphia, PA to document an adjacent lot that will soon be converted into a driveway. The survey must be accurate enough for legal documentation with the county, so all measurements and drawings have to meet local standards for stamped survey plans. Scope • Precisely locate and record the lot’s current boundaries (only if it helps reference the new drive) and capture exact driveway dimensions—length, width, and any required setbacks. • Supply a clean, scale-drawn plat showing the proposed driveway layout, bearings, and linear measurements. • Provide a full photo set: aerial views (drone or equivalent), eye-level ground shots, and close-up detail images that clearly show surface conditions and any obstacles. • Include a brief notes sheet summarizing measurement methodology and equipment used so the report stands up to scrutiny when filed. Acceptance The job is complete when I receive: 1. A signed, digital survey PDF (and CAD file if available) suitable for county recording. 2. High-resolution photos covering the three requested perspectives, all geotagged. 3. A measurement summary confirming driveway dimensions within ±1 cm accuracy. Please indicate your license jurisdiction, survey equipment model (e.g., Trimble, Leica), and estimated turnaround time. PLEASE NOTE: SERIOUS BIDS ONLY.

Hello, Precise boundary control and certified deliverables are the main risk here: county recording requires a stamped plan with survey-grade positional control, geotagged imagery, and a measurement summary that verifies ±1 cm accuracy. I will eliminate that risk by tying the site to a published control monument and using RTK and total-station checks before producing the plat. I am a licensed land-survey professional working in Philadelphia, PA with multiple recorded plats for small-lot and driveway work. I routinely produce stamped survey PDFs and CAD files acceptable for county recording, and I provide aerial (drone) and ground photo sets that include geotags and close-up detail shots tied to plan callouts. I will perform a topographic boundary check and set an on-site control, capture RTK GNSS positions and total-station traverses, fly a drone for aerial orthophotos, and photograph prescribed perspectives. First deliverable will be a signed, county-ready PDF plat with bearings and linear measurements; CAD file and full geotagged photo set follow. - [Please indicate your license jurisdiction] Pennsylvania (licensed to practice surveys in Philadelphia and surrounding counties). - [Please indicate your survey equipment model (e.g., Trimble, Leica)] Primary: Trimble R10 GNSS with base/RTK; secondary: Leica TS16 total station; drone: DJI Mavic 3 Pro for aerials and geotagging. - [Please indicate your estimated turnaround time] Fieldwork: 1 business day. Deliver signed PDF and photo set: 5 business days post-field. CAD file: 7 business days. - Do you have a preferred county recording contact or plat template to match? - Are there any access restrictions or utilities you want identified during the survey? A quick call works for me whenever you are ready. Christopher

I’m interested in this survey because the final documentation must be accurate enough for Philadelphia permitting and legal review, not simply a site measurement. I can document the existing lot and proposed driveway, including boundaries, length, width, setbacks, bearings, site conditions, and required photographs. I understand the requirement for a signed survey PDF, CAD file where available, geotagged photos, and a measurement summary targeting ±1 cm accuracy. 1. Review the property information and Philadelphia survey requirements. 2. Establish survey control and measure the relevant boundaries, driveway, setbacks, and site features. 3. Capture aerial, eye-level, and close-up geotagged photographs. 4. Prepare the scale plat with bearings and linear dimensions. 5. Document the field methodology, equipment, and measurement accuracy. For this type of work, RTK GNSS alone may not be sufficient around buildings or obstructions. I would use an appropriate total-station/RTK workflow with redundant checks for the critical dimensions. The biggest risk is producing precise-looking measurements without adequate survey control. I’ll control this through established control, independent checks, and documented field procedures. I understand that payment will be handled strictly through Freelancer’s payment portal.
