Convert your land into Google Earth

Good news for land owner in Peninsular Malaysia. Melakasurveyor is providing a small service to convert your land into Google Earth.

Some my clients ask me why they need this service. Usually land owner will spent some money to find out where is their land boundary either by licensed land surveyor or freelance surveyor. The main interest is to know where the actual boundary mark on the ground is. Some surveyor provides hardcopy and digital to their client but the digital is in cad format where the client usually does not know how to open it. Then the digital data is not fully utilized or wasted.

What is Google Earth? Google Earth is an invention by Google to enable the internet user to view the map with database such as road, building and etc. There are many facilities in Google Earth and the most important this program is free without any charges from Google.

When we provide the lot in Google Earth, the owner can view their land and the surrounding environment. It is a powerful tool where the land owner can design or do many things in the Google Earth.

This is a real story from one of my friends, he is a land broker and he told me that even he has the title in hand but it is difficult to identity the land location. Sometime the seller or broker can describe their land in wonderful condition but when the trading complete, the buyer just noticed that the piece of land was no the pointed position. It is a bad experience for the buyer including to my friend. This is why this service is important because the cost involve is cheaper than hire a land surveyor the survey the whole lot.

Charge for rural area are as below

below 5 acres per lot = RM 25 (minimum charge)
5 – 10 acres per lot = RM 40
10 – 20 acres per lot = RM 60
20 – 30 acres per lot = RM 80
above 30 acres please kindly email me for further discussion.

Charge for urban area is as below

Minimum charge is RM 50 per lot.

Communications

Communication is part of surveyor life either to public, customer, employer or employee.

What is communication?

To exchange of information between people, e.g. by means of speaking, writing, or using a common system of signs or behaviour.

Why I write this article? I noticed that if the survey team does not have communication then the survey really can not work.

Why the survey can not work? Surveying is a team work, there is no people can say he is the best in the team. All the people in the team have their function and duty. In survey, it is tough you are alone. The survey can be carried out but it really slow and wasting time. I tested before when my boy refused to work on hilly area in Negeri Sembilan. We as a professional land surveyor must keep to the word so that the client respects us when we are in difficulty. The client provides me 2 labors to assist me to carry the survey instrument and me really thankful to this client. I need to walk up and down and I only can survey about 200m per day, it is really tired especially in hilly area. However, it is good experience in my survey life and I will never forget this incident.

Back to the communication topic, my team usually has 2 person myself and my assistant.

If we do not talk or communication between ourselves then there is no “frequency”. For example, when we reach to new site, both of us must search for the boundary marks. I can not sit at one site and tell my assistant to search for it. Then it will waste time. Subsequently, my assistant will set the station for me to observe when 2 marks found. It is something like flow chart. Do this and follow by next step and so on. How this can run in smoothly. It is easy. Talk and discuss while we are driving. This is how we improve from mistake. We can not deny that we can not do mistake. The moment we did mistake and we must know how to avoid in future or improve it.

Sometime, our walkie-talkie out of order then we needs to use ancient style-hand. Hand communication is another skill for a land surveyor. There are many symbol and style in hand communication. No all the people can understand when we show this and that by hand.

This is the great of communication. The more you communicate the more you improve yourself.

The Engineer

Recently, one of my customers came to us and requested us to do details survey for his lot and the drainage flow system as required by his engineer.

This was a common job for a surveyor. The main purpose of this survey was highlighting the ground level on the lot and invert level for the drainage system until to the main drain.

As usual the engineer requested the digital data and hardcopy and we as land surveyor will charge according to the need.

The Engineer immediately rejected our data and told the client that our survey was wrong because the drain water could not flow to the main drain when he compared with JPS data. My boss immediately asked me to check the data and re-checked the height for the station from bench mark. I personal did the survey and saw the water flowed as shown in the plan and how the engineer could state that the survey was wrong.

After I re-check the height from bench mark and noticed that the error was from JPS data. I immediately contact the client and told him the fact. On the spot, the client contracted his engineer and wanted me to tell his the error. I asked the Engineer to check the data with JPS department. He claimed that he could not because he got the data without permission. What he try to tell us? Did he aware want him doing? This is why nowadays; many people claimed that the “Qualify” professional is getting less and less. This professional people do not know their function/ duty and claimed that they can settle the entire problem. Is this Malaysian attitude?

Health

This time I really sick and today I already took three days rest in the house. It happened on 2 weeks ago, I started cough and it was a normal illness during this heat weather.
I just took the medicine from government clinic and continue my surveyor’ life as my routine job. The cough seems to be better than previously and I overlook my body anti-body.
The incident happened on last Thursdays where I did a small detail survey in town area. The moment I started the survey and I kept on coughing without stop. Even through my assistant was coughing but no serious like me. Nearly every station, I was coughing until the owner asked me to rest. We did not stop and continue until completed the survey.
My lung was badly “hit” by cough virus and on the night itself, I can felt that my anti-body was too weak to fight with this VIRUS. Finally, I fail in this fighting and cause me in fever and serious coughing during mid night even I took the medicine. The following day I woke up early due to coughing and did some computation on yesterday works. My mind kept on telling me that “Melakasurveyor, you still can work.” Thus, I follow my instinct and continue yesterday work. The weather was heat during the day but we managed to complete the whole survey before noon.
Unfortunately, I listen to my instinct and ignore the significant signal given to me-cough and I finally “collapse” the whole weekend until today.
During this sick period, suddenly there are many jobs in and I could not do it. My wife told me that health is more important than wealth at this moment, just let other people earn the money and perhaps there will be “Big fish” in future. There is no point earning that money with this unstable condition and moreover it is bad to the health. It is true and recently there are many diseases occur in the world like H1N1, the victim over look the disease and end with death.
I think the God want me to take a rest after a long journey of working since February and the period allows me to accompany my family and review my Melakasurveyor journey.

Lost in Estate

It happened on yesterday when I wanted to check one of the surveyor's cadastral work in Gemencheh at Negeri Sembilan. The location of this 3 acres lot was surrounded by oil palm estates and cause us to seach for the access around this area. Even through we have GPS but our vehicle could not access and finally need to contact the owner for the actual access.

We reached the site by 11 o'clock with the GPS and TSM system. The site was really steep and we walked around to search the boundaries marks planted by the surveyor. The lot is small and the exhausted part was walking on steep road with my "unrecoverable" condition. After an hour walking, I made a decision to continue on the following day.

We (Rasidi and me) were too confident and drove the Pajero. Nearly 40 minutes, we still in the estate compound and could not find the way out. My boss called and asked where we were. I told him that we lost in estate....hahaha...surveyor lost in estate. It is no a joke, we are really lost in estate and there are no people we can refer to.

Finally, I opened the TSM with GPS and noticed that we were behind the lot. Funny, we drove to the south direction and we could end with the north part of the lot.

From this experince, I noticed that even you have GPS system, compass play an important role to direct you to actual direction. Initial, I just guild with GPS system and cause us made unneccesary driving. Estate road only one way and diffficult to reverse and the only solution is just keep driving and look for the access.

By 2 o'clock, we successfully out of this estate due to overlook of a junction in the estate and cause us to round the whole estate. Bad experience.

In future, before I go in this remote area. It is better for me to mark on the ground or take the GPS reading before I end out with this embrassing experince.

This is an error in FB2F program for m-correction.

This below message stated that

“Warning
Unable to apply m-corrections for the bearings that start and close on the datum line”

1. If datum is by Sun, then you should key in and compute solar observation for the line.
2. If the datum is from PA, then you should key in the PO bearing and distance for the line.
3. If the datum is assumed, then you should key in and compute solar observation for any line in the loop.”

Let us see what is the defination datum in peraturan ukur 2002 under 24 (1) (b)

Sub-division of Lands (Pecah Sempadan Tanah) and Partition of Lands (Pecah Bahagian Tanah)

This was the question posted to me on last week by Tan and Ong. What is the difference between Sub-division of Lands (Pecah Sempadan Tanah) & Partition of Lands (Pecah Bahagian Tanah).

1) Section in National Land Code
a. Sub-division of Lands is in section 135-139 National Land Code 1965.
b. Partition of Land is in section 140-145 National Land Code 1965.

2) Defination in English & Bahasa
a. Sub-division of land – “The proprietor of any alienated land held under Register or Land Office title or qualified title in continuation of final title may, with the approval under this chapter of the State Director of Land Administrator, as provided by sub-section (2), sub-divide the land into two or more portions to be held by him under separate titles.” Further explaination please refer to section 135 National Land Code.

i. Pecah sempadan tanah adalah bermaksud bahawa tanah yang dipegang di bawah hakmilik tetap, sama ada hakmilik Pejabat Pendaftar atau hakmilik Pejabata Tanah, dipecah sempadan kepada 2 bahagian atau lebih, tiap-tiap satunya untuk dipegang oleh tuanpunya yang sama atau oleh tuan punya tuan punya bersama yang sama di bawah hakmilik yang berasingan.

b. Partition of Land- “ Any alienated land which is held under Registry or Land Office title or qualified title in continuation of final title by two or more persons as co-proprientors may, by agreement between those persons and with the approval under this chapter of the State Director or Land Administrator, as provided by subsection (2), be partitioned”, Please kindly refer further explanation in section 140 National Land Code 1965.

i. Pecah bahagian Tanah bermaksud bahawa tanah yang dipegang di bawah hak milik Pejabat Pendaftar atau hakmilik Pejabat Tanah, oleh dua orang atau lebih sebagai tuanpunya bersama adalah dipecahkan supaya (syer) meletak hak pada tiap-tiap orang seorang dari mereka itu di bawah satu hakmilik berasingan.
ii. Apabila didaftarkan hakmilik sementara bagi tiap-tiap bahagian atau apabila didaftarkan hakmilik-hakmilik tetap bagi bahagian tanah itu (jika hakmilik sementara tidak dipohon), hakmilik yang sedia ada adalah terhenti dari berkuatkuasa.
3) Form to be used
a. Sub-division of Lands is using Form 9A
b. Partition of Land is using Form 9B.

I think most of the students still can not understand the meaning of Sub-division of Lands (Pecah Sempadan Tanah) & Partition of Lands (Pecah Bahagian Tanah), including me when I was a student.

Let me tell you all how to differential these two surveys.

Partition of land

One divorce couple come to you and wants to split their land into 2. Then you should use partition of land for this case. Please do not wrongly use form 9A then you will be in trouble because this divorce couple name will share same title even split into 2.

Sub-division of land

This survey normally applies if you have huge acreages of land want to sell in small pieces such as 1 acre. You can easily sell the land and the price also will be in high margin compare with big acreages. You need to do is just transfer the title name to the buyer name without much trouble. It is straight forward trading.

From the past experience, I can see that those days’ people like to share to buy a piece of land and subsequently they will end out with difficulty to get their own title. They want to sell also difficult and normally the price also discounted.
