This map is later used by the <br /> Engineering Technician to perform a survey in which fhe true state plane <br /> co-ordinates of the corner can be determined. <br /> This information maybe used in creating a legal description or a plat, both <br /> of which are created by the Engineering Technician. <br /> b) Property records <br /> Review of deeds, plats, legal descriptions and fax maps using online <br /> resources. Per`ormed by taking the information available on line in the city <br /> databases and cross-referencing tax lot information and addresses and <br /> reading legal descriptions to determine accurate boundary information. A <br /> thorough understanding of surveying is necessary to understand legal <br /> descriptions, deeds and plats. They can be confusing and hard fo <br /> understand. Only experience in working with them can help make it easier. <br /> c) Pre-construction site information <br /> Pre-construction site information can be either of two types: <br /> • Information collected about the site by the Engineering Technician <br /> • Information provided by the Engineering Technician to the <br /> contractor prior fo construction. <br /> Engineering Technician Position Review 3 January 2004 <br /> _ _ _ _ <br /> <br />
