Sichtlinien, Visierlinien


Explanation:
In the absence of any further context, I am just guessing.
Langenscheidts Fachwörterbuch Bauwesen: Sichtlinien, Visierlinien.
Outside a surveying context, also "Sicht", c.f. Merriam Webster: a line extending from an observer's eye to a viewed object or area (as a stage) <a theater with excellent sight lines>
