Unit of competency
Modification History
Release 1 |
This version first released with CPP Property Services Training Package Release 12.0. This unit supersedes and is not equivalent to CPPSIS5044 Develop subdivision survey designs for local government approval. |
Application
This unit specifies the skills and knowledge required to prepare a detailed subdivision survey design. It includes researching zoning, development control plans, road hierarchy, layout and width, and lot size, shape and orientation. The unit also includes conducting measurements and calculations, and developing plans detailing required information, including boundary dimensions and corners, subdivision lots, features and adjoining information, surrounds, connections and offsets.
This unit is suitable for skilled surveying technicians and skilled spatial information system (SIS) technicians who use a broad range of cognitive, technical and communication skills to select and apply methods and technologies to analyse information and provide solutions to sometimes complex surveying/spatial information problems.
Surveying and spatial information skills are applied in a range of industry contexts, including town planning, civil construction, mining, engineering, health, agriculture and defence.
All work must be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, in accordance with relevant state/territory regulations that govern surveying work, as well as work health and safety (WHS) legislation regulations that apply to the workplace.
Cadastral surveying must be undertaken under the supervision of a registered surveyor. Users must check with the relevant regulatory state/territory authority before delivery.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
