Hi Everyone,
For years, there has been a lot of talk about 2 looming problems in the surveying profession; Age Gap and Knowledge Gap
What is being done about it?
Although these are monumentally important discussion topics, we need to do something about it rather than just talking about it. We must inspire new surveyors to enter the field. We can do this by openly sharing experiences and telling a new generation about the excitement that can be found in surveying. In just 3 weeks we will

Over the years, we have tried to make note of important milestones and markers in our community development. But as one surveyor who recently wrote in points out "It would be great if we could view all of the milestones at a glance." Well, of course you could view them all inside the about page on our Facebook Page but if you are not on facebook this would be difficult. So today I decided to collect them for us here on the network.
I would first like to say that I am so dang proud of this com

This is our 4th year celebrating the surveying profession worldwide on this week and it is slowly changing the industry into a more open and connected situation for surveyors all around the world. Just ask yourself a couple of questions. Have you recently noticed all of the surveying magazines and forum websites pushing the idea

Most of the GNSS Network RTK projects have been developed by the economical justification that an active geodetic network would reduce the cost of maintaining a traditional geodetic network where the maintenance of the benchmarks and the control survey were a significant part of the ownerís budget.
A GNSS Network RTK can also be justified where there was no geodetic network to assist the creation and the maintenance of a Spatial Data Infrastructure to support land governance and cadastre operatio
Dear Surveyor,
As we steadily grow towards 15,000 members worldwide, as a community it is important for us all to learn about the strengths and weaknesses of the community members. With that said, we'd like to invite you to Share Your Story! You can either post it by adding a new story post or email it to [email protected] and we will post it on your behalf. No matter if you are a student of surveying looking for a mentor or a surveyor who has been in the field for years needi
When I started my career, I have been attracted by one (of many) question : how accurate is the surface/volume calculations knowing the uncertainties of the points that define these geometrical figures. I really wanted to know in term of standard deviation what would be the "end results".
The solution was to propagate the variances (standard deviation squared) into the functional model (the mathematical formula in short) and to retrieve the results I was looking for.
By taking the formula to deter
Good news for all of you who are using a GNSS RTK without the fancy tilt meter and IMU onboard !
You can turn your today GNSS receiver to do the "free bubble style" by mixing up 2 technologies that popped up last year.
The first one is about software receiver as we learnt we can feed the digital signal processing part of a GNSS receiver into a smartphone and the second one is that we don't need to take the GNSS survey pole vertical !
My approach of this problem has been developed and tested alread
One of the typical survey method for determining station's points and survey details has been the traverse method. There have been considerable discussions on the way to "adjust" angles and distances and lot of rules of thumb while rigorous Least Squares Adjustment softwares are available anywhere.
I would say "too much" talks and controversial exchanges for a method that is simply not appropriated anymore considering modern instruments. Long traverses (geodetic) have been anyway replaced by usin
With Survey Earth in a Day just around the corner again, knowing where your local markers are will come in handy when deciding where to submit a point from. Aside from our growing collection of Survey Marker Photos (photos tagged 'marker' inside the community), occasionally we will share marker photos on our Facebook Page which surveyors around the world respond to with, of course, their own marker photos. Take a look at this post for example and the comments which followed.
Plotting while measuring saves time and make the drawing accurate with no ambiguities. Creating accurate drawings is painless with a Bluetooth enabled DISTO device. If you paired the Distometer with AutoCAD mobile app, the Plotting can be done simultaneously.
First turn on Bluetooth in both devices and pair them. See the image below.
