What do you think of it? I've been working on it on and off since 2014 when I noticed it was a hodgepodge of jargon and layman guesses with several factual errors. Here is what it looked like back then. (Note that some of the useful info on the old version has since been hived off into it's own pages.) I'll consider my little project complete when I can convince the wiki bureaucrats to give it 'Featured article' status.
Good job. Have you done all this yourself?
Can you change the first picture at all? As an example picture of a surveyor at work I wouldn't say it gives a great representation.

I would say at this point perhaps 20-30% of the text is mine, and most of the rest has been reworked by me at some point. One of my big efforts last year was an attempt to bring the reading level down to something that a high-school senior or similar could read, which meant breaking down lots of compound sentences.
As for the picture, it could absolutely be changed. The only tricky bit is that it has to follow wiki copyright rules. For personally taken photographs, this means that the person who took it has to declare it free for use with a creative commons license. For a little while it was the picture of the woman with the level gun that is now further down the page, but the background is boring and the pose is awkward, so I eventually changed it back.
