Produce basic plans of surveys

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024


This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to use suitable computer software to produce basic plans of a survey from surveying field data. The unit covers setting up equipment and software, establishing surveying data and dimensions, processing data, and producing basic plans to meet task specifications. It requires an ability to read and understand surveying data, and technology skills to manipulate, import and export data using software applications.

The unit supports those who work under supervision in a surveying and spatial information services team.

No licensing, legislative, regulatory, or certification requirements apply to this unit of competency at the time of endorsement.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)
