There is a box or drawer full of old plats, blueprints and survey drawings that are collecting dust somewhere at your surveying company.ย Why not scan them into a file archive and monetize them?ย Imagine being able to sell access to those old surveys, retain the rights and permissions and make money twice with them.ย This is exactly whatย America's Building Records is providing the construction industry- the ability to do just that.ย Land Surveyors United recently partnered with ABR and would lik

Below is an email threadย 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 theyโre not alone out there. We all have gotten calls and comments like this. So, donโt get upset or offended when you do. Unfortunately our profession hasnโt had or developed the professional reputation that we would desire. Folks stil

Last week a member who is currently seeking employmentย asked me how they could get in touch with a recruiter to find employment. ย It dawned on me that although I had developed ways for recruiters to find job seekers, I had never added a category for recruiters. ย So, today I changed that. ย If you are a recruiter, simply visit Your Profile Settingsย and change the answer to the first question "I am here because I am...." to Recruiter. ย 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, โLiDAR USA has developed a lightweight LiDAR specifically for unmanned aircraft that is capable of getting centimeter-level resultsโ. 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
