The key idea is updating how a surveyed parcel is divided internally without changing its outer limits. When lands that aren’t titled or have an existing survey need a different number of lots but must keep the same outer boundary description, you don’t redraw the whole boundary. you amend the existing survey to reflect the new interior lot layout. That precise action is called an Amendment Survey: it changes the internal division into more or fewer lots while preserving the original boundary description.

Public Land Survey focuses on establishing the original lines for land in the public domain, not on modifying an existing subdivision. Isolated Survey applies to creating a survey for a standalone parcel outside a standard survey network, not to reconfiguring internal lot counts within a fixed boundary. Private Land Survey is a broad term for surveying private properties and can involve subdivision, but it doesn’t specifically denote altering the number of interior lots while leaving exterior boundaries unchanged as Amendment Survey does.
