Our Mission
is to accurately map North Central Missouri one corner at a time. We prioritize making every single property corner and boundary line we mark correct for our clients and we do this by exhausting every effort to locate and perpetuate the corners established by past county surveyors and the original government surveyors. A good land survey can bring a lot of value to both parties in a real estate transaction. It can protect a sellers’ investment and ensure market value, and it can educate a potential buyer of unknown details about a piece of real estate, preventing them unwanted cost and headache.
Every member of our staff embraces and continues the traditions of our surveyor ancestors for the greater, over-arching goal, which is to protect the Section corners laid down by the GLO.

The 5th Principal Meridian
This initial point set in 1815, serves as the beginning point for all Section lines in Missouri. In a direct or indirect way, every property is tied back to this point.
Our Team
Our personnel have been living and working in the North Central Missouri area for multiple decades, gaining specific experience with the county surveyors of the past, the county government policies and land title offices serving these Missouri counties.
