During the Renaissance, the surveyor played an important role in architecture as they were responsible for the accurate measurement and layout of buildings, roads, and other structures. They were skilled in mathematics and geometry, and used various tools such as the astrolabe and theodolite to accurately measure angles and distances. The surveyor worked closely with architects and builders to ensure that the design and construction of buildings conform to specific measurements and proportions. In addition, surveyors played a significant role in the development of urban planning and the mapping of new territories during the expansion of Empires.
