If we cannot think outside our local environment, we become chained to it.  We are all chain-breaking for the Future on Land Surveyors United!

International Land Surveyors Week 2015 (June 14-21) is for Land Surveyors in any country on earth to celebrate the value of professional land surveyors in society. This is our 3rd year celebrating this week and it is slowly changing the industry into a more open and engagable situation for surveyors all around the world.  Have you recently noticed all of the surveying magazines and forum websites pushing the idea that they are global and/or international?  No need to wonder why.. just look at what we are doing together here on Land Surveyors United.  Stand up and represent your area of the world by introducing yourself in Groups for practically every inch of the earth!  What we are building is a comprehensive network for educating those new to surveying about both the similarities and differences shared between surveyors around the world based on locations, which we all know carry different guidelines and rules.  Tell us stories about your surveying experiences where you live and enjoy reading the stories of others who live elsewhere, but face similar professional challenges.  In the future, the most well rounded surveyors will be those who understand how things are done outside of their local environment.  Build, Grow and Improve your Surveying Carrier, Together!

No Mind Left Behind

  SURVEY EARTH in a DAY 4D occurs June 21st at Noon on the solstice, so if you happen to be a surveyor who will need to borrow equipment from your company for the weekend, please remember to make the necessary arrangements with your boss.  SEIAD will occur at Noon on  June 21st and surveyors across the globe will be taking survey grade GPS measurements within their local area and submitting them to Land Surveyors United, as we measure the entire earth during the course of a single day. Represent the land surveyors in your area of the world by participating in surveyor events each and every day of International Surveyors Week 2015.  On Thursday, we will be sending out the form for submitting your data for Survey Earth in a Day.
