Surveying & Geospatial
Land & Engineering Surveying skills assessment
Surveyors define boundaries and control the accuracy of what is built. This scorecard covers instruments, setting out, boundary work, calculations and reporting so survey firms can develop technicians and surveyors consistently.
- 10 skills to score
- 1–10 scale on every skill
- 6 starting levels

How Land & Engineering Surveying works in SkillScorer
Score
Each surveyor in a survey team is scored on the Land & Engineering Surveying skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank surveyors, compare two side by side, or compare your survey teams against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Land & Engineering Surveying skills need attention. Reports also follow each party chief's survey team.
Land & Engineering Surveying scorecard: common questions
What skills does the Land & Engineering Surveying scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Land & Engineering Surveying scorecard covers 10 skills: Total Station and GNSS Operation, Control Networks and Datums, Detail and Topographic Survey, Construction Setting Out, Boundary and Cadastral Survey Principles, Levelling and Height Control, Survey Calculations and Data Reduction, Field Notes, Documentation and Plans, Legislation, Standards and Professional Practice and Field Safety and Working Around Traffic and Plant. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are surveyors scored in Land & Engineering Surveying?
Every surveyor is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one survey team and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Land & Engineering Surveying?
Land & Engineering Surveying starts with these levels (called “Seniority Level” in the app): Trainee, Survey Technician, Surveyor, Senior Surveyor, Party Chief and Principal Surveyor. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Land & Engineering Surveying skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In surveying & geospatial the app talks about surveyors, survey teams and party chiefs, and you can change any of those words too.
