In most situations the Romans new just where they were going and an advance party or Vanguard would be sent ahead with officers and engineers, these soldiers would march the regular distance and select the site where the camp was to be built taking into account it's outlook.
In fact the engineers would even mark out just where everyone had to go including the centre point for the Commander, and even with the length of the group everyone would get his fair share of the work the front marchers even getting a rest while the late comers take over and be all done by sunset.
