Adding Yourself to a Member Category
Justin has added the ability to tell the network which member category you care to be classified in, such as Student, Publications Rep, Vendor, ect. Simply answer this (Membership Status) question inside your profile to be correctly grouped. This will allow you to quickly be found inside the Member Categories Subnavigation on the site.

Use the Geopicker to Add Your Lat/Long Geolocation
Add your geolocation to the final question in your profile answers so that your member profile shows up in the correct location on the member map. At the very least, please do this so that our Maps Administrator (G. Breisch) can easily map you correctly.

Land Surveyors United is the largest geospatial network on the planet. Your profile should be considered a professional resume, as it is your standing representation of your experience and passions as a geospatial professional. On June 19th, we will be making an all inclusive update to the Global Mamber Map before Survey Earth in a Day, so please take 5 minutes and update this information and we'll do the rest.
