Show us why the public should always call a land surveyor

Where are you surveying?

Course SummaryThis one-day computer lab workshop co-sponsored by the Connecticut Association of Land Surveyors (CALS) & the New England Section of ACSM (NES-ACSM) is designed to empower surveyors to post process their own single point or pair of points solutions for local survey projects that require NAD83 coordinates, using free and demonstration software.Those who have taken the course should be able to post process raw static GPS observations provided by themselves or others. Surveyors who formerly contracted out GPS and paid for the post processing might be able to comfortably contract out only for GPS data collection. Survey technicians will gain marketable skills for applying in their survey firm.The PresenterJohn Doody, PLS/PE, is an adjunct faculty memberat Central Connecticut State University, Department of Civil Engineering Technology, teaching courses in GPS and Advanced Surveying.
