Helping LSR Build a Marketplace For Land Survey Data
How we designed and built an entirely new product to replace the legacy system, solving for scalability with over 1TB of data, 3M+ land surveys, and serving thousands of users.
Our Impact
We designed and built an entirely new product to replace Land Survey Records' legacy system, solving for scalability and handling of massive amounts of data. The platform handles over 1TB of data, 3M+ land surveys, and serves thousands of users with a modern marketplace solution for storing, managing, and interacting with high-resolution land survey data.
Designed and built entirely new product to replace legacy system
Built scalable infrastructure handling over 1TB of data and 3M+ land surveys
Created modern marketplace enabling upload, purchase, search, and sort of survey plans
Implemented advanced search functionality by location, date, project name, and custom tags
The Vision
Land Survey Records needed to modernize legacy survey data systems that relied on physical archives and outdated digital systems. Surveyors and property professionals struggled with slow, inefficient searches across massive image archives, with limited collaboration and sharing capabilities hindering industry productivity. The platform required handling ultra-high-resolution imagery with robust, scalable architecture, fast global access and efficient compression pipelines, database indexing strategies for high-speed search across image metadata, and real-time plan upload and download capabilities.
Our Approach
We built an intuitive platform from the ground up, enabling surveyors and property professionals to search, sort, and filter through massive archives of image-based plans. We implemented advanced search functionality by location, date, project name, and custom tags, and created a built-in marketplace where users can upload and optionally sell their own plans. We designed and deployed cloud infrastructure optimized for storage-intensive workloads, implemented CDN delivery for fast global access, built efficient compression pipelines to handle terabytes of image data, and developed database indexing strategies for high-speed search across image metadata. We provided continuous platform maintenance and feature development, implemented real-time support for client inquiries, and maintained board-level stakeholder communication.
The Results
1TB+ data scale - Platform handles over 1TB of data and 3M+ land surveys with high performance
Hours to seconds search time - Reduced search time from hours to seconds for survey record retrieval
Thousands user base - Serving thousands of users with reliable, scalable infrastructure
High speed platform performance - Big-data architecture delivers high speed and reliability even as usage grows
