Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services, FY2025

NAICS 541370 joined with fiscal year 2025

The relationship is mechanical: NAICS 541370 crossed with fiscal year 2025 yields one obligation sum. $258,463,298.05 is that sum for Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services in 2025. USAspending.gov publishes the figure as a yearlyTrend obligation total. Obligations are commitments recorded on awards, not Treasury outlays. The industry-wide extract remains $1,559,375,542.90; the FY2025 hub remains a separate parent. This pair does not explain why agencies bought surveying and mapping services except geophysical work, and it does not name contractors or award recipients.

Nothing in the facts supports reading $258,463,298.05 as a count of surveys, acres, or named firms. The NAICS title excludes geophysical services; this cell does not add them back. Correlation between this NAICS label and FY2025 spending is the join itself, not a causal story. Campaign-finance tables do not fund these USAspending obligations. Place-of-performance and awarding-agency splits are omitted from this packet.

Surveying-and-mapping dollars inside FY2025

On the industry side, NAICS 541370 is the Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services extract. Its published total across the extract is $1,559,375,542.90. $258,463,298.05 sits inside that book at 16.6%; the other fiscal-year rows for the same code sum to $1,300,912,244.85 in this arithmetic. The parent industry page holds the longer series without isolating 2025. Award records in the extract number 2,343; that count is not limited to FY2025.

Surveying and mapping services except geophysical work is the NAICS description attached to the awards, not a proof of goods delivered. A later USAspending ingest can restate $258,463,298.05 or $1,559,375,542.90 without changing the join keys. Do not add the all-industries index into this cell. The 16.6% share is $258,463,298.05 divided by $1,559,375,542.90, not a budget score or a ranking of industries.

2,343 records are not 2,343 surveys

2,343 award records are not 2,343 units of surveys, acres, or named firms. The count rides with the Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services extract, not with a FY2025-only slice. Modifications, deobligations, and multiple lines can inflate row counts. Unique recipients stay unpublished. A per-award mean from $258,463,298.05 and 2,343 would mix a FY2025 dollar total with an extract-wide record count. This packet does not publish a FY2025-only award-record count for NAICS 541370.

What this surveying cell omits

What the table is: USAspending.gov NAICS yearlyTrend for Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services (NAICS 541370) in fiscal year 2025, totaling $258,463,298.05. What the table is not: an outlay register, a surveyor roster, a geophysical-survey file, a named-mapping vendor list, an agency split, a map, or an FEC-funded pipeline. Public records, not accusations. The NAICS title excludes geophysical services; this cell does not add them back.

Do not treat 16.6% as evidence that FY2025 dominated surveying and mapping services except geophysical work in a causal sense. The share is arithmetic on two packet totals. Named contractors and award recipients are absent from the facts. Quote NAICS 541370, FY2025, and $258,463,298.05 together. The remainder of the extract after FY2025 is $1,300,912,244.85 in this arithmetic, still not an outlay.

Parents for NAICS 541370 and FY2025

Four hrefs ship with the packet: /industries/541370/ (NAICS 541370), /fiscal-years/2025/ (FY2025 federal spending), /industries/ (All industries), and /ties/ (All spending ties). Use them as parents, not as this cell. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov for this 541370 × FY2025 pair.

Keep Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services and FY2025 together when citing $258,463,298.05. NAICS 541370's extract-wide award-record count is 2,343, not a FY2025 census of surveys, acres, or named firms. Obligations of $258,463,298.05 are not outlays. The 16.6% share uses the extract-wide $1,559,375,542.90 as the denominator. Agency and geography splits are omitted. A later ingest can restate $258,463,298.05 without changing NAICS 541370 or fiscal year 2025.

On the year side, fiscal year 2025 is the second join key. $258,463,298.05 is Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services inside FY2025, not all federal obligations recorded for that year. Other NAICS codes have their own FY2025 cells. The fiscal-year parent lists government-wide context without this industry filter. FY figures can be incomplete or later restated; the source note on this packet says so.

Keep Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services, NAICS 541370, FY2025, and $258,463,298.05 in one citation. Dropping the year turns the figure into the extract-wide $1,559,375,542.90. Dropping the NAICS turns it into a year hub that is not this join. Outlays remain unpublished here.

Questions

How much did Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services obligate in FY2025?

USAspending.gov records $258,463,298.05 in Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services obligations for fiscal year 2025 under NAICS 541370. That amount is a yearlyTrend obligation total, not an outlay and not the industry's $1,559,375,542.90 extract-wide sum. The join names both Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services and FY2025; it does not name contractors or award recipients.

Is $258,463,298.05 the entire NAICS 541370 USAspending total?

No. NAICS 541370's extract-wide total is $1,559,375,542.90. FY2025 is 16.6% of that book. Other fiscal-year rows for the same code are separate cells. Do not add the parent hub into this join. Obligations of $258,463,298.05 are not outlays. USAspending.gov remains the source for the 541370 × 2025 pair.

Do 2,343 awards equal 2,343 surveys in FY2025?

No. 2,343 is the Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services award-record count in this extract, not a FY2025-only census of surveys, acres, or named firms. The packet does not split those records by fiscal year or name contractors. USAspending.gov remains the source. Unique recipients are unpublished on this join.

Do FEC filings explain Surveying And Mapping (Except Geophysical) Services obligations in FY2025?

No. FEC filings do not explain $258,463,298.05. The source is USAspending.gov. Obligations are not outlays, and donations do not fund NAICS 541370 in FY2025. The pair is NAICS 541370 plus fiscal year 2025. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset from this yearlyTrend cell.
