About the Slovak Authorized Surveyor Exam Exam
Independent study practice for the qualification examination that the Chamber of Surveyors and Cartographers (Komora geodetov a kartografov, KGK) holds under Act No. 487/2021 Z. z. for authorized surveyors and cartographers (autorizovaný geodet a kartograf). The examination proves competence for the selected geodetic and cartographic activities under § 6(d) to (j) of Act No. 215/1995 Z. z.: geodetic points, large-scale state and thematic maps, setting-out networks, setting out and check measurements, displacement measurements, as-built surveys, industrial geometry and territorial information systems. Authorizing geometric plans and other cadastral results under § 6(a) to (e) also requires special professional competence granted by ÚGKK after its own examination. Applicants need full legal capacity, integrity, a second-level degree in geodesy and cartography, and at least five years of practice in selected activities. They submit at least ten representative projects up to seven years old covering at least four selected activities, and a recommendation from a KGK member who has held a § 6(d) to (j) authorization for at least seven years.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the structure of the KGK qualification examination?
Under the KGK Examination and Authorization Rules, the examination consists of a discussion of the submitted projects (three chosen by the commission), a written part and an oral part that discusses incomplete answers from the written part. All commission members may ask questions.
How is the examination graded?
There is no percentage pass mark. The candidate passes only by passing all three parts. The commission evaluates the examination without the candidate present as 'vyhovel' (passed) or 'nevyhovel' (failed), with more than half of the members agreeing; a failed candidate may repeat it after six months.
Who may take the examination?
Under § 6(10) of Act No. 487/2021 Z. z., the applicant needs a second-level university degree in geodesy and cartography (or a recognized equivalent) and at least five years of practice in selected geodetic and cartographic activities. The application also requires at least ten representative projects and a recommendation from a KGK member holding a § 6(d) to (j) authorization for at least seven years.
Does passing the KGK examination allow me to authorize geometric plans?
Not by itself. The KGK examination covers activities under § 6(d) to (j) of Act No. 215/1995 Z. z. Geometric plans and other activities under § 6(a) to (e) taken into state documentation also require special professional competence granted by ÚGKK after its own qualification examination, and geometric plans must also be officially verified by the district office.
In which language is the examination held, and is this bank official?
KGK's application, rules and syllabus are in Slovak, and projects chosen by the commission must be submitted in the official language. This bank is independent English-language multiple-choice practice prepared by OpenExamPrep; it is not an official translation or past paper, and it does not simulate the written, oral or project-defence parts.
