Enjoy, explore and contribute to our community....a living library of land surveying which is not controlled by 3rd party interests- it is controlled by you, the surveyor. No one else in the world aside from our community members catalogs changes in the surveying industry. No one else collects, curates and showcases the importance of land surveyors to society for future generations to learn from and to promote public awareness of this importance. It takes just a few moments per week to curate a rock solid legacy in surveying but every minute you spend sharing your experience will breathe ten years of life into the profession.

Thanks for the add. Nice to meet you.
Thank you Justin, I am just passing it on. I had a lot of good mentors who took time for me.Some of the world's greatest teacher are surveyors who care about the future and traditions, the new and the old of this trade.Sometimes I think about some of the old surveyors who cared to teach me and I wish that I could tell them so.

Thank you for your service to the Land Surveyors across the globe. Kindly accept me as an associate. I 'll approach you as soon as I find some problem at my work. Thank you
I AM LOOKING FOR STRATEGIC PARTNERS 4 A $1,OOO,OOO,OOO BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY
For most of the last 20 years my sons and I have been developing a new land information system. The foundation of this system is a land title surveying process I have developed and patented. As this technology has developed is has become clear that the data we are collecting for our real estate transactions clients will soon be the foundation for automating and modernizing the real estate settlement process. We are now looking for a demonstration project in an area of highly active real estate sales. If you would care to have more information please contact me at 239 282 9170 or [email protected]
Because it showed that 'file format was not recognized' when changing. I used data transfering from topcon ES105 . How can I do it?
Would appriciate if you could show Sri Lankan Flag on the map shown in Organization structure page.

Justin,
Hey Big Man,
Very sorry I have not been around.....I messaged you a couple of times about a month ago. Man I would never think anything like that about you...besides everything you and your website have done for me, I respect you, always have, always will, The conversation we had about why you are doing what you are doing with this site is evidence enough that we share the same beliefs and goals. You da Man!!! hm hm hm....Been through the dam mill again....after giving heart and soul to that company for a year, passing Oklahoma exam, with your help, and working alot for free the sobs laid me off....started driving a cab 12 hrs a day 7 days aweek....submerged again....too f__kin tired to do anything....then got on with this big mine in Southeast Arizona, kicking ass here, boss told me yesterday Im good for the next umpteen years, good money, good benys, my family is taken care of....so I just recently started to get my shit together again. The site where I had all my study stuff, the webmaster closed it down, he has it all archived. I started a study group in Yahoo groups called Land Survey Study Groups. Was trying to change things around with that on LSU but got bogged down. Other than all that my family is good, we're still kicking....How are things with you? Is that your son? Whats new on LSU? Whatever I can do for you Justin, you let me know. In any event, Respectfully, Paul
AWESOME SITE
I am new to this site so I am still feeling my way around. There is a lot of information available and it will take sometime to get through all of it. As a Professional Land Surveyor for 35+ years, a computer programmer for surveying software for 35+ years and web designer for 10+ years, I can appreciate the dedication that you have given to this site and the time and effort it takes to unite the surveying community from around the world.
I am currently working on my legacy by putting all of the knowledge I have learned over the many years through experience, training and teaching others the tips and tricks into easy to read ebooks. The world is quickly evolving into the a paperless society, with smart phones, tablets, the cloud, and other electronic devices. These ebooks can be taken to the field and made readily available on any electronic device. Pretty cool stuff. I wished I would have had the tools we have today back when I started out. This is a great time for surveyors.
I have always wanted to write a series of math books on surveying that simplifies the process down into easy to follow step by step instructions. I started working on that legacy earlier this year with a series titled "Surveying Mathematics Made Simple".
I am 59 years old and I love technology. Most of my peers, that are at my age, have fell into the mind set that they don't want to keep up with the rapidly changing technology and are looking at retiring. I feel that I am just beginning. Surveying in the future is going to be great. I am excited to see what changes are headed our way. I predict a time where a GPS base will no longer be needed (we are almost there) and coordinates that are on a repeatable datum for a point, will become a monument. My peers scoff at me when I make those predictions. I predicted that radial stakeout was a cool tool some 30 years ago and was scoffed at. Back then closed traverses was the common method, that was way before GPS. Now radial stakeout is the norm. I used state plain coordinates way back then even though the math was time consuming. Most of my peers avoided it. Little did any of us know at the time that GPS was headed our way.
I will be posting stories about my work on solving the myth about there is no such a thing as parallel spiral curve offsets. I have solved that myth after 35+ years of working on it with new formulas which will be coming out in an ebook this coming week hopefully.
I am the pioneer in Arizona for using digital signatures on professional documents. I have an article in the works for Professional Surveying Magazine that will be published sometime this year.
Thank you for letting me be part of your site where I can share my knowledge and experience in hopes that it will help others become better surveyors.
Sincerely,
Jim Crume, P.L.S., M.S., CFedS
