Wow,

I clicked on the second link, and searched for a land surveyor, and my company name showed up. It has a link to my website.

I have no idea who they are.

odd. radians? the text describes plss and the photo is a poket tape across a rr gage? electromagnetic distance measurement has to be my favorite, though. quite a find.

weird article that compares Land Surveys and Appraisals? Two things that are not related. The whole article feels like the sentence, "If you can't afford a Cadillac then you can buy a hamburger."

Dave-

If you look to the RICS (rics.org) here: http://www.rics.org/professionalgroups you will see additional professional groups that include 'surveying for valuation'.

But, don't tell the Hon Gent. from Green Bay.

He would be expecting a fleet of corgis attached to HRM as it is a "Brit" thingie 😉

cannot get to the ppt. only thing is an edm is electro-optical from the infrared beam, not electromagnetic

are we both thinking the same thing?

found it, thanks. any chance the older edm's (microwave) are electromagnetic? i'm just not convinced yet. seems the newer (infrared) are electro-optical
