SURVEYORS - LAND

Land surveyors combine elements of law, physics, geometry, trigonometry and engineering to determine the terrestrial position of certain points, along with the angles and distances between them. This is done using various equipment such as infrared reflectors, total stations, GPS receivers, 3D scanners, prisms, radios, digital levels, surveying software and handheld tablets.

Land surveyors combine elements of law, physics, geometry, trigonometry and engineering to determine the terrestrial position of certain points, along with the angles and distances between them. This is done using various equipment such as infrared reflectors, total stations, GPS receivers, 3D scanners, prisms, radios, digital levels, surveying software and handheld tablets. The surveying of land is required when designing and executing construction, transport, mapping, communications and even legal land ownership boundaries. Less
