I guess I should therefore specify a latitude or longitude as a 'geodetic latitude' or 'geodetic longitude' too? Yes. It is important to specify...

AVERAGE SINGLE used for Base. What exactly does "average single" mean? Is the base not collecting static while broadcasting? I have no idea how...

... they are still using the same photos with the same employees ... Pet peeve of mine is websites that crow about their progressive thinking and c...

I was looking at purchasing a software that computes LDPs but its like 5k a year and for fun I can’t do that as just for my own use The computation...

@olemanriver I think that all depends on the state and where you are working/constructing. Generally speaking SPCS2022 will make that distortion muc...

@rover83 I guess the only time we’re running corrections over cell would be RTN to establish base coordinate. Everything after that is base/rover. Th...

@olemanriver Most likely the projects are "in state plane" but not actually designed and built on grid. Whatever small level of distortion there is...

Not a bad article, all things considered. I've never seen one where they actually talked to a surveyor, though.

Trouble was, the surveyor showed the "W" line, but also showed the line with the "E" bearing, dotted. Labelled it as being the result of a transcripti...

Are you currently running corrections over cell? If you're working in areas with only so-so cell coverage, UHF will often get you better latency than...

Besides, option #2 will prevent a 6 year old thread from popping up on top of the list when someone feels it is appropriate to comment on that old thr...

I didn't notice the sketch yesterday before I replied...that sketch is not representative of how projections and elevations work. The plane does not m...

I don't see much value in sketching out improvements unless there is something unusual about them that cannot be captured in the point/line observatio...

Are you staking to geodetic values (LLH) or to grid values (NEZ)? If you're just changing the elevation while staking to the same grid NE values, you...

It's a highway? If it has an alignment (I would think so), the portion of the description along the ROW could also be described by station and offset.

I think folks are getting hung up on the projection piece. I could be wrong, but based on the OP, it doesn't seem like there is a need to explain or ...

Northings and eastings are values that communicate distance from their respective reference axes. Latitudes and longitudes are values as well, but th...
