Survey Manual

This manual was designed as a replacement to the 1998 Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) Survey Manual due to changing surveying technology and the needs of MDOT. The principal purpose of this manual is to secure an optimum degree of statewide uniformity in surveying procedures, to establish and maintain survey standards, and to improve the overall efficiency of the Department’s survey function. The manual was created by an active committee comprised of representatives from each District, Roadway Design, Bridge, Right of Way, Contract Administration, and Construction divisions.
