Hays Land Surveying, LLC is located in Osceola, Nebraska, and we work in all of Nebraska and South Dakota.

Licensed in the State of Nebraska, and South Dakota we can provide you with the following types of surveys:

• Boundary Surveys (Rural & Urban)

A survey to establish the boundaries of a parcel using its legal description

which typically involves the setting or restoration of monuments or markers

at the corners or along the lines of the parcel. A boundary survey of the

parcel of land will be made in accordance with Nebraska State Statutes

and the corners of the parcel of land will be located and verified or

re-established. This survey CAN be used for the construction of a fence,

structure or other improvements with regards to local, state and/or federal regulations.

• ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys

A surveying standard jointly proposed by the American Land Title Association

and the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping that incorporates elements

of the boundary survey, mortgage survey, and topographic survey. It covers all the

aspects of the Boundary & Improvement Location Survey together with the identification

of any additional evidence of possession or use which could be adverse to the interests

of the borrower. The client will provide the surveyor with a completed “Table A – Optional

Survey Responsibilities and Specifications” form from the Minimum Standard Detail

Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys.

• Topographic Surveys

A survey that measures the elevation of points, features, and improvements on a

particular piece of land, and presents them as contour lines on a plot.

• Floodplain / LOMA Surveys

A survey that determines the elevation of your property in relation to the base flood elevation.

If your property is above the 100 yr.base flood elevation, you may be able to do a LOMA survey

and have your property removed from the floodplain, and avoid paying high cost flood insurance.

• Construction Surveying

Construction surveying (otherwise "lay-out" or "setting-out"): to stake out reference

points and markers that will guide the construction of new structures such as roads

or buildings for subsequent construction. These markers are usually staked out according

to the arbitrary coordinate system used for the project.

• Aerial Photography Horizontal & Vertical Control Surveys and Target Placement

Set up horizontal and vertical control for aerial photography flights, whether it be State Plane coordinates or

UTM coordinates (meters or feet). Including target placement and setup of aerial targets.

• Improvement Location Surveys (Mortgage Surveys)

This is a minimum survey that shows the location of the buildings and foundations actually

located on the land covered by the legal description provided by the client. Typically, this

survey uses a minimum of only two corner monuments. This is NOT a boundary survey and

is subject to any inaccuracies that a boundary survey may disclose. The Improvement Location

Survey should not be used or relied upon for the establishment of any fence, structure or other

improvements.

Hays Land Surveying utilizes state of the art GPS (Global Positioning Systems) and Electronic Total Stations for survey work.
