Tersus GNSS Inc. (“Tersus”), a leading GNSS manufacturing company announces its launch of a new generation GNSS RTK system with multi technology integrated for surveyors, the NeoRTK System.

NeoRTK System is a high-performing GNSS RTK system applied with multi-constellation and multi-frequency GNSS engine and various communication protocols which aim at providing high performance and stable signal reception satisfying surveyors’ demands. With high-end GNSS antenna inside, NeoRTK can speed up the T

If you are a surveyor currently seeking employment, you probably already know that we work hard behind the scenes in order to help you find those jobs.   Our previous jobs board at helped over 300 surveyors find work per year, but as things change and software is phased out, so to we must change.  So we've built a new and improved site here at http://jobs.landsurveyorsunited.org   Notice the only difference is a change from .com to .org  and the jobs board is now FREE to post to.

Below is an email thread that happened over the last couple of days related survey pricing and a request that came in from a potential client. I wanted to share it with surveyors and other potential clients for a number of reasons.

One is so that surveyors know they’re not alone out there. We all have gotten calls and comments like this. So, don’t get upset or offended when you do. Unfortunately our profession hasn’t had or developed the professional reputation that we would desire. Folks stil

Unlike most of the previous years, Survey Earth in a Day happens on a workday this year.  In previous years, surveyors needed to borrow RTK equipment for the weekend, but this year, we hope everyone will participate.

For Those Who Are New To Our Community

This research aimed to analyze double meridian distance for a closed traverse area in developing a land title for a proposed gymnasium in Qassim University. Total station, theodolite, leveling rod and steel tape plays an important role in measuring elevations, bearings, and distances of the boundaries of a lot. A contour map is necessary to determine the traces of level surfaces of successive elevation. This will enable to identify the type of contour map and type of contour lines necessary for

Surveyors Are United!  We are Stronger than Ever Before

I have a few announcements and some new cool things for you to check out over the weekend, but first, I would like to extend a warm welcome to all of our new members on Land Surveyors United.  We appreciate you joining us in our mission to bridge the gaps between surveyors and to strengthen the profession.  If you have not yet introduced yourself, please tell us a bit more about your relationship to surveying here.

For Recruiters

Last week a member who is currently seeking employment asked me how they could get in touch with a recruiter to find employment.  It dawned on me that although I had developed ways for recruiters to find job seekers, I had never added a category for recruiters.  So, today I changed that.   If you are a recruiter, simply visit Your Profile Settings and change the answer to the first question "I am here because I am...." to Recruiter.   Once enough of you have made this change, I wi

Kevin Dennehy, in his latest article [Hovering in High Performance UAS-based LiDAR Space] of Inside Unmanned Systems, Apr-May issue, mentioned that, “LiDAR USA has developed a lightweight LiDAR specifically for unmanned aircraft that is capable of getting centimeter-level results”. Tersus is contributing a small portion of effort with our GNSS RTK receivers to support LiDAR to achieve more high precision possibilities. Take a look at the article to learn a little bit more of us. http://insideunm

I collected static data for the second time and again did not obtain a solution from any of the 4 control points when uploaded to OPUS rapid static.  I am using an R7 with a zephyr 2 gnss antenna.  The area I am collected is a somewhat clear area within a deciduous (no leaves) wooded area.  At least 10 satellites were tracked the entire time for all of the collection sessions.  I am pondering three things:  1. Should I try to collect for a longer period - maybe even 2 hours or more and upload to

A land surveyor's truck doubles and triples at times as his/her office, home, sanctuary and place of peace and quiet.  Over the years, hundreds of photos have been submitted by you and your fellow surveyors of crews at work and the work trucks used to get you around from job site to office.  Today we asked our followers on the Facebook page to share with us their work truck photos and we've had many responses that we want to share with you.  

There are at least 30 more submitted so far at this

Today’s project managers face a variety of challenges in their work every day, from ensuring speed and efficiency to keeping up with a complex and ever-changing regulatory landscape, to preventing costly oversights. With so much on their plate, it’s of the utmost importance that these project managers be able to take advantage of the new and innovative technologies that can drive value across the project.

One example of such a technology is unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The hype surrounding U

Dear Mr. Cheap Surveyor,

I just got off the phone with one of your newest property survey clients. Evidently he called me because he thought your price was too high. I didn’t know that till I spent an hour measuring and figuring and estimating what it would take to do the job. I talked to my field su
