Just to be clear: this is a LS with no LS Plus or RTPK upgrades enabled?
It's a regional thing. Some areas would say 14 chains to the section line, others would say 14 chains more or less to the section line. My theory as t...
From personal experience... Probably. Maybe. My hours got reduced to 0 about 2 weeks ago, and I got told it would last for 2-3 months. Speaking of whi...
Moe you're supposed to come up with a creative "humble brag," not tell the truth...

Given that NGS NOS 92 calls for 5 minute observations when using NRTK for secondary and local control, I'd say that Oregon's DOT standards are apt. I ...
We run into this all the time. And 90% of the time the client says something along the lines of 'what do you mean I need a boundary survey? I already ...
My brother in processing: the client just wanted you to stake the line so they can put a fence in...
So if I'm reading between the lines... he says most surveyors "find problems", while he fabricates problems. Big improvement.
PDFIMPORT is the command to import "true" PDFs. Sometimes the text isn't perfect but the linework usually comes in pretty well.
I'll gladly do something that's not within our SOW or NOT do something that's within our SOW. If you could please sign here when providing that instru...
Don't even need redundancy to run that report in TBC.
