ALTA/NSPS Survey Compliance Analyzer
Validate surveys against ALTA/NSPS standards and generate compliance reports
What You Can Do
You can systematically validate survey data, documentation, and reports against the current ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey Standards (2021 or later). The skill cross-references your survey content against specific ALTA/NSPS requirements for property class, accuracy standards, and deliverable requirements, then generates detailed gap reports with remediation steps. Use it to catch compliance deficiencies before title company review, document which standards sections apply to your transaction, and ensure your surveys meet lender and title insurance contractual requirements.
Features
Maps survey elements against specific 2021+ standard requirements by property class and survey type
Identifies missing elements, documentation deficiencies, and accuracy standard violations with severity flags
Generates step-by-step remediation workflows for each compliance gap with implementation timelines
Validates survey meets lender and title company requirement checklists before delivery
Determines applicable ALTA/NSPS property class (rural, urban, one-to-four family) and scope requirements
Creates audit trail of which standard sections apply to your survey with evidence requirements
Supports internal QA review processes for survey teams managing multiple concurrent projects
Confirms compliance with current ALTA/NSPS 2021 standards and flags legacy requirement conflicts
Example Output
Example 1: Commercial Property Survey Gap Report
Property: 450 Oak Street, Denver CO | Class: Urban (ALTA Standard)
Compliance Status: 7 gaps identified
-
✗ Geodetic tie-in missing — REQUIRED per Section 4.2.2
- Remediation: Establish GPS control points tied to state plane coordinate system
- Timeline: 2 days field work + processing
-
✓ Boundary corners marked and referenced
-
✗ Underground utility conflict note incomplete — Missing cable/telecom details (Section 5.1.1)
- Remediation: Contact utility locates for complete conflict map
Overall Compliance: 71% | Risk Level: Medium
Example 2: Title Company Requirement Alignment
Your survey meets 18 of 20 lender requirements:
- ✓ Metes and bounds with distances and bearings
- ✓ Area calculation to nearest 0.01 acres
- ✗ Easement encroachments not noted (Required for title insurance)
- ✗ Zoning boundary verification missing
