It's a STAKE out!!

This is the little gadget the surveyor uses for accurate measurements to stake out your lot.  It has a  picture of your entire plot plan. Look closely and you can view the plot plan of our lot.
We were scheduled to meet with our SR who showed up at 11:00 am and the surveyor showed up at the same time.  This timing was impeccable. We were able to catch him in action. He said it would only take 5 minutes to stake out the four corners; but I asked him to stake out other points so we can get a better since of the house layout.  He was very generous laying out the additional stakes per my request.  This made both my hubster and I very grateful so that we can get a sense of the layout.
This picture shows the young 23 year old engineer student with the additional stakes in his tote.
He is a senior at Towson University.
THE FIRST STAKE!  YAY!
He said once he stakes out the lot it is automatically sent through his gadget and they return for the next phase.  There are three phases to stake out the lot.  Phase 1 - the four corners  Phase II - The additional stakes for the foundation walls Phase III - Precise stake locations before foundation walls are installed for concrete guys to pour the concrete
BEFORE STAKE OUT!
AFTER STAKE OUT!
YOU CAN SEE ALL THE ADDITIONAL POINTS HE LAYED FOR US!
