Hello, I am from the Philippines with a humble 26 years of experience as a registered surveyor (Geodetic Engineer) doing various work in construction (anchor bolts /foundations), land surveying (property, subdivision development, etc.), mining (limestone, coal, gold and copper, etc.), hydrographic using various instruments such as Total Stations, GNSS, UAV Photogrammetry, among others.
I am already excited to share with the global surveyors these small experiences that I had.
June
Welcome June. I look forward to hearing about your experiences and adventures.
Welcome!!!!
You have found a great place.?ÿ Please add your comments and experiences.
Welcome, friend.
Thanks a lot for your replies. ?ÿYes I am more than willing to share with you what I have, though I know, from my readings, that your experiences, because they use more sophisticated instruments and procedures, had helped me a lot in those times when I am in trouble in my practice of surveying...
Hi June, The last time I was in the Philippines was 1967 doing a special survey (for the military) in Subic Bay.
I was in the Marine Corps (1961-1970) and pulled into Subic Bay many times. Sure miss the great food?ÿ
(Adobo,Pancit,Inihaw, Pinoy for a snack) also my favorite beer San Miguel.
Welcome to this site.

Welcome June. I lived at San Miguel and went to High School at Subic Bay in 1983. It was a great experience for me.?ÿ

Welcome, June.
Mrs June,
What kinds of projects are going on over there? Many of us are "USA only" thinkers.
Are there any pics available?
We all like foreign photos, and everybody likes story time.
