Survey QA checklist for field-to-office review
A field-to-office review checklist covering reports, linework, CRS metadata, exports and PDF evidence. Every item is advisory — it helps a reviewer work through a job, but it does not replace a company QA process or a registered surveyor's sign-off.
Advisory and unverified — not for survey deliverables. A registered surveyor must confirm any output before it is relied on.
What SurveyMarkup can flag or organise
- Report warnings, residuals and misclosures
- Linework codes and CRS metadata
- PDF evidence and needs-review notes
What it cannot prove or certify
- It does not replace your company QA process
- It does not certify a survey
- It does not stand in for surveyor sign-off
Report checks
Scan warnings, residuals, misclosures and skipped lines in the reduction or job report before anything else moves.
- Warnings and errors reviewed
- Misclosure and residuals noted
- Skipped lines accounted for
Linework, CRS and export checks
Confirm feature codes, review CRS metadata and run export-readiness checks before CSV/DXF/GeoJSON/KML handoff.
PDF evidence and sign-off
Link evidence on selectable PDFs, capture needs-review notes, then route everything to a registered surveyor for confirmation.
A field-to-office handover is worked through top to bottom.
What SurveyMarkup surfaces
- Report warnings, misclose and residuals noted
- Linework codes and CRS metadata reviewed
- PDF evidence linked and a needs-review list captured
Reviewer's call: The checklist complements the company QA process and ends with registered-surveyor sign-off — it replaces neither.
Frequently asked questions
Does this replace our company QA?
No. It is an advisory checklist that complements your QA process; it does not replace it or certify anything.
Can I use it across reports, linework and PDFs?
Yes — it spans report, linework, CRS, export and PDF evidence review, all advisory.
Is the checklist a compliance document?
No. It is a review aid. Registered surveyor confirmation is still required.
