I was there when he got all the surveys from his first boss.
Up until he retired he still did all of his work in Sitecomp for UNIX. Still bought machines from 1995 that I would clone his SCSI drives to the new machines had to learn a lot of command line HPUX for yuck. He used to brag he fit all of his survey projects on a single DVD. That's not entirely true.. after 50 years it was 2 DVDs and mainly because HPUX writes in chunks as small as 512bytes instead of NTFS 4KB.. so small files take 1/8th the space.
Anyway. His son preceded him so he has no survey heir. I have no use for it not being licensed. Basically he has surveyed the entirety of Absecon Island. (Atlantic City NJ down through Longport) as well as Brigantine. He was THE waterfront guy for years.
There are some mainland surveys as well but those tend to be older.
SiteComp translates to DWG just not a modern one but they still import.
Not sure how much paperwork he still has. When I left it was a 50' long wall with 4 drawer file cabinets lining it and part of it was double stacked with 2-3 drawers on top. I think he tossed abunch when he moved to his newer office about 10 year ago. I know he threw out the blueline printer about 15 years ago. But imagine he still has all the copies of field notes in post office bins LOL
IF there are any NJ Surveyors here, that would be interested in funding his retirement at all. I can put you in touch. I am sure he would include the old workstations and everything.
EDIT: IF you take care of him. I will help you network a PC to the workstation as long as you are somewhat local. (I will probably need to be there it has been a while). Which will be the last ten years of surveys at most minus his backed up stuff already on NTFS drives.
