(a) Prepare and maintain sketches, maps, reports, and legal descriptions of surveys in order to describe, certify, and assume liability for work performed.

(b) Direct or conduct surveys in order to establish TBM, running chainage, road line, drain line, structure line and legal boundaries for properties, based on legal deeds and plan.

(c) Conduct traverse surveys in order to establish primary and secondary control points and control survey plan with traverse reports.

(d) Conduct topographical, as-built surveys and provide detail plan with cross and longitudinal section.

(e) Providing information to supervisors, co-workers, and subordinates by telephone, in written form, e-mail, or in person and Handling complaints, settling disputes, and resolving grievances and conflicts, or otherwise negotiating with others.

(f) Inspecting equipment, structures, or materials to identify the cause of errors or other problems or defects.

(g) Verify the accuracy of survey data, including measurements and calculations conducted at survey sites.

(h) Providing documentation, detailed instructions, drawings, or specifications to tell others about how devices, parts, equipment, or structures are to be fabricated, constructed, assembled, modified, maintained, or used.

(i) Record the results of surveys, including the shape, contour, location, elevation, and dimensions of land or land features.

(j) Calculate heights, depths, relative positions, property lines, and other characteristics of terrain.

(k) Prepare or supervise preparation of all data, charts, plots, maps, records, and documents related to surveys.

(l) Read, utilize and interpret design drawings and topographic maps.

(m) Plan and conduct ground surveys designed to establish baselines, elevations, and other geodetic measurements.
