For Philippine geodetic engineers

From technical description to plotted lot in seconds.

Surbee for Windows plots a land title's technical description, ties it to the official control point, checks closure and area, prints the lot plan, and exports it for CAD and GIS. On your PC, even with no signal.

Features

Everything between the title and the plan.

Surbee does the part you'd otherwise do by hand, course by course, before the real work starts.

Enter the technical description

Type the courses into cells, like a spreadsheet, or paste a title's wording as it's written. Keep the title's photo or PDF open beside the form while you check.

Official control points

Search the monument by name, like "BLLM No. 1, Cad 17". Surbee fills its Northing, Easting and PTM zone. Built in today: Region 9 (Zamboanga Peninsula) and NIR, with more regions to come.

Closure and area, checked

Linear error of closure and relative precision against the required standard. Compass or transit balancing, and the area in sq.m. and hectares.

Whole subdivisions on one map

Every lot in its true grid position, one tab each. Mother lots and their sub-lots, a measuring tool, and an Overlaps & Gaps check between neighbours.

Lot Plan, ready to print

An A4 plan at a standard scale, with the title block, the technical description and tie line tables, and the adjoining lots. Print it or save a PDF.

Ready for CAD and GIS

DXF with layers and text sized to the scale, Shapefile with its projection for QGIS, KML for Google Earth, and PNEZD point lists. For one lot or all of them.

Real lots, real screens.

These are from Surbee itself, with a real subdivision plotted from its titles.

How it works

Three steps. About a minute.

Enter

Type or paste the technical description, or open saved lot files. A whole subdivision opens in one go, one tab per lot.

Check

See the lot on the grid next to its neighbours. Read the closure, precision and area, and balance the traverse if it needs it.

Print & export

Print the Lot Plan, or send the lots to CAD, QGIS or Google Earth. Every lot stays in your SRB Vault for next time.
