Surveyors define and manage the land around us, interpreting and navigating legal aspects of land ownership. Specifically, Registered Surveyors maintain our land administration systems set by the government and are authorised to legally define boundaries and prepare plans.

You need a Registered Surveyor for important land decisions such as subdividing land, defining boundaries and ownership, developing community title or strata title, identifying existing buildings and improvements on parcels of land and determining levels for flood studies and environmental changes in land.

A surveyor doesn’t have to be registered to work in the industry, however without registration a surveyor is unable to maintain the cadastre by the locating and marking of boundaries under state legislation. Essentially, depending on the scope of your project a Registered Surveyor may be required to legally define boundaries and prepare plans.

Registration requires not only a tertiary qualification but extensive additional training under the Board of Surveying and Spatial Information for accreditation, along with annual continuing professional development compliance.

Graduating from RMIT with honours, Treasco Surveyors Director David is a Registered Surveyor in NSW and the ACT, as well as a Licensed Surveyor in Victoria.
