As the largest community body of land surveyors anywhere in the world with close to 9000 members, we have a responsibility. We must do all that we can to educate the public regarding our importance to society in order to pave the way for those who come after us.  One way to accomplish this would be for each of us to record a short PSA sharing the nature of surveying jobs in the places where we live.  

For Example, this PSA was submitted by Kennedy Komla of Ghana

Surveyor calc

That's why I decided to develop Surveyor calc.

Surveyor calc is an application designed to perform the max speed and productivity in the field of

Keep in mind that I am writing these posts straight from my mind and will most likely not go back and edit them until I have reached the end, so just enjoy these raw memories

Those new to the surveying industry most always need a little know-how and in efforts to support this need, LSU provides the absolute best and simple platform for publishing such How-To discussions and articles. So today let's talk about what an effective How-To tutorial contains. A 'How-To' tutorial is by far one of the most common post types used by almost every blogger, writer or expert online. Why? Because people search for answers when they don't have them already. Inherently, 'How-To' po

Long time since I have been on-line here. I salute LSU on growing a large base, and I have witnessed a growth in the content and number of members. This is a great all encomplassing surveying site. Have been working on a blog site, and a learning site that for land surveyors and GIS folks "who want to know about land surveying, GIS and people who I have been able to video. Lot's of short videos,interviews, tutorials, articles and papers on the historyl of Texas Land (Darrell Shine's collection)

With the level of competition that exists for land surveyors and geomatics professionals, being successful as a company owner or working independently requires a combination of technical and creative skills, as well as business skills. Naturally, most land surveyors are more comfortable with the technical and creative aspects and less comfortable with running a business.
