The key idea is identifying the permission that specifically authorizes a private geodetic engineer to perform a bounded, one-off survey on public lands for the purpose of public land applications. That authorization is the Survey Authority. It is issued to cover an isolated survey on public domain, enabling the engineer to conduct the necessary measurements, prepare the survey plan, and support land-appraisal actions like patents or other public land determinations within approved scope.

Field Survey Permits are typically used for fieldwork within non-public land contexts or routine surveys under specific conditions, not the targeted isolated survey on public lands for land applications. A Survey Order is generally a directive tied to government-led surveying tasks, rather than permission granted to a private practitioner for a specific public land application survey. A Survey Clearance is a more general clearance to survey but does not confer the focused authority to conduct an isolated public land survey for land-application purposes.
