BEGONE SURVEY MAPS
Edit to answer you guys: It was painful for me too and it's not like I don't enjoy Tamriel landscapes while collecting them. But when doing writs I'm most of the time running to a place, mounting and unmounting and loading screens which for me is even more painful than losing all that gold.

When you have multiple survey maps, after you collect one, preview a house and walk out the door. It puts you right back to where you started from and the next survey map resources will be there.13 -
alkoriak✭✭✭They stack, you can wait till you have a fair amount of a specific one when you need the associated mats and use them all at once very quick. Just need to ride far enough from the place it spawns and then come back and it spawns again if you have more surveys. Or just visit any house to buy and exit immediately (faster than relog). But anyway your decision is not bad either since it's all about having fun in the end. Now you can use the time to do the things you like

so... about 30 seconds for each load screen.... or put on rapids, run 6 seconds in a straight line turn around, and it'll be respawned...
1 minute vs 12 seconds...

Most that takes longer due to load screens. Really you just need to walk past the field of view a few steps and the next one triggers.3 -

If you have rapid maneuvers just hop on your mount hit rapids and take off. When the time is about half turn around and go back. Your new resources will be waiting for you. Quicker than porting to a house.and then the parrot said, "must be the water mines green too."3 -

I used the house trick for the one jewelry survey in Wrothgar, but running is faster almost everywhere else.1 -

✭I destroy Enchanting ones, they are worthless for time/effort to collect.
All the others i save until over 1k surveys then spend days collecting them, though this is the most efficient way.
One of the worst things to do in this game is lap spots collecting a reward for days lol1 -

That tip is definitely worth an awesome!1 -

Have to agree. Never even thought about doing this until it was mentioned above.
There's one jewelry survey in nw Wrothgar that is a bit of a hike from the wayshrine. This tip makes revisiting to do multiple surveys much easier.
I couldn't even find the location the first time - it requires jumping down onto a ledge that's hard to see, unless one knows it's there. If I hadn't found a video guide on how to find the location, I'd still be running round in circles.
