AI agent for land surveyors
Survey Job Scheduling and Access Agent
Send crews only to jobs where access, notices and weather are ready.
What it does
A crew arrives at a locked gate or in a storm, and a day is lost. This agent checks each job before the crew leaves. It confirms access permissions and notices to owners, gate codes, dog warnings and right of entry rules, then reads the weather forecast and crew time. It builds the day plan, and reschedules when any check fails, such as an owner who has not answered or a wet forecast for GNSS work. You approve all owner notices. Edge case: the neighbor's land must be crossed to reach a corner, and the agent holds the job until the notice is sent and the days required by law have passed.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
Read the steps as a list

- Send notices and log replies
- Build the day plan with the ready jobs
- Recheck access and forecast the day before
- Are all jobs still ready?If not: Remove the failing job and move it to the next open day. Back to step 8.
- Day plan and rescheduled jobs
How it decides
It marks a job ready only when access is confirmed, the notice period has passed and the weather suits the work.
- Notice periods set by state law must pass before entry
- Rain over 0.1 inch stops GNSS and optical work (default)
- Do not plan more than the crew's hours
- Recheck the day before
