says a surveyor to a contractor I do models for.
Location - Shelby, NC
Is this true? I thought it worked in most places.
My guess is that he's referring to the availability of RTN service.
Or he is doing underground surveying....... 🙂
I thought VRS covered most if not all of NC. I may be mistaken.
No underground, car wash.

NCGS has a station in Shelby. There should be great coverage on NC VRS

Yep, no problem with getting on a network in Shelby. Does this particular contractor use VRS or does he set up his own base, maybe the job is in a hole?

Thad be careful, I build a lot of models and have talked with a lot of contractors in this area and there seems to be some unlicensed individuals offering modeling services to people. Most of these individuals know a little cad work but dont have as much experience with the working end of it. Maybe he has gotten some misinformation from one of these scoundrals.

He uses both base and vrs.

Yes I know. Too bad the Board will issue a cease and desist but will not follow through. I just offer a superior product at a reasonable price.

Does a person have to be licensed to provide such services? (I am not asking if they SHOULD be, I am asking if it is actually codified that they must be).
I am not sure how it works here. There are probably some catch all things in the law that could be used to say the person is practicing without a license, but I don't think our code specifically mentions DTM work.
In NC, yes. I attached the NCBEELS memo on the matter.

In NC you must be a licensed engineering or surveying company. I can post the link later after I get back to the office. Too late- see above link.

There are places where "GPS" should not be used especially for machine control. The terrain, vegetation, shape of the site ( long skinny r/w thru heavy canopy or wide open cow pasture ), whats the details?

We have built a project in Shelby using machine control with no issues. I wonder if they are using a base and getting stepped on by someone on the same network close by.
