Surveying in Duval County
Duval County and the City of Jacksonville are consolidated into a single government, making it the largest city by land area in the contiguous United States. This consolidated structure simplifies permitting but covers an enormous geographic area from the Atlantic coast to rural western reaches.
The St. Johns River runs through the heart of Jacksonville, creating extensive riverfront boundary situations. The river is tidal through Duval County, meaning mean high water line determinations require tidal datum analysis for riparian boundary surveys.
Jacksonville's military installations — Naval Station Mayport, NAS Jacksonville, and Camp Blanding (Clay County border) — generate specialized survey demand for federal projects requiring compliance with both state survey standards and federal specifications.
