Lewis and Clark surveyed the Louisiana Purchase
No, the Oregon Trail was used by people moving to settle in Oregon later in the Nineteenth Century. It didn't exist yet when Lewis and Clark surveyed the land the United States gained in the Louisiana Purchase. In fact, the Oregon Territory was not even a part of the Louisiana Purchase.
The Lewis and Clark expeditions were vital for exploring the land the country had just purchased. No one was willing to settle out west until the land had been surveyed for potential dangers.
It began with negotiations between the US and France to allow the US to purchase the port and city of New Orleans from France. However Napoleon decided he needed more money than the US was offering to help finance his wars in Europe and countered with an offer to sell all of France's remaining territory in North America if the US offered a larger sum of money. Nobody had surveyed these territories and neither the US or France really knew what lands were involved in the deal nor their boundaries. This was why the US had to send the Lewis and Clark Expedition after the purchase to evaluate and estimate the lands they had purchased and their potential resources.

It is always a good idea to have a prospective home surveyed to make sure that there are no encroachments.
In 1870, Forrest surveyed the route which Edward Eyre had taken in 1840-41 from Adelaide to Albany, across the Great Australian Bight. As the main route from eastern Australia overland to the west, he realised it needed to be surveyed so a road could be built, and later a railway.
I carefully surveyed the disaster scene, looking for my date.
