The invention discloses an optical cable line routing general survey operation method, particularly relates to the field of optical cable maintenance and management, and dynamically presents optical cable line routes around the environment where maintenance personnel are located through a satellite map in combination with GPS coordinates. Maintenance personnel perform matching and comparison with on-site optical cable lines through a mobile terminal in modes of point selection, point dotting, occupation, point deletion, splitting, confirmation and acquisition in combination with system routing information, so that general survey of new network access optical cable line routing can be quickly realized, and checking of stock optical cable line routing can be quickly realized. The standardization and accuracy of optical cable route data are effectively improved, redundant data caused by general survey can be avoided, general survey and optical cable route calibration can be directly achieved on the multi-point trend of the optical cable route at a time through the mobile terminal, and then the simplicity and convenience of the optical cable route general survey operation process are achieved; and the method has the characteristics of intuition, convenience and high efficiency.
