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
For too many project development managers, the land surveying portion of the construction process is just a necessary evil—something that they must take care of before the real work can begin. However, if you use the right technology, the land surveying process can be a source of real business value for the project as a whole. By getting the project off on the right foot with high-quality land surveying services, you can set the foundation for a project that gets completed on time and within bud
Bitter sweet accomplishments today. It was a dream of my dad's to have a place where he could easily and openly communicate with his customers (Land Surveyors) and help professionals solve problems from the field. In March of 2007, I began building Land Surveyors United Community during a time when Myspace was still the primary social network. Every single day since then, I scroll through applications to join at least 3 times a day and decline most due to lack of seriousness in the answers they

I am a surveyor and I spent a lot of time to do surveys with my dad. Then I asked myself, why not speed things up? we have many daily electronic tools, why not use them?
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
survey.
It allows to calculate areas of a survey but also to create automatically a digital figure of the survey
to open in a CAD software.
Why this is a very useful app? This
CHAIN! The weakest link (in the chain)

Texas RPLS no. 4966
Certain magazines (trade magazines) have purported to represent the current interests of our profession by exposing Land Surveyors to new technologies and philosophies regarding our industry. These magazines have been around for decades in many cases.
These so called trade magazines have treated us for years and years now to articles where the authors (pundits) of these articles chide us insisting that Land S
The Revolution of Surveying with Regular Cameras Webinar
Hi, this is Eric Colburn and for myself, Datumate and Colburn Strategic Partners I invite you to this free webinar on the Revolution of Surveying with Regular Cameras.

Regardless of the name, this is mapping from digital photographs for the 21st century!

You'll Figure It Out
“You’ll figure it out.” The advice my mom gives has always been the same, whether addressing my high school homework or paying bills while taking a full course load in college. If I was looking for a shortcut, my mom was not going to be the one to provide it.
