“I was drawn to land
surveying because it allows
me to work outdoors while

engaging in work that is
dynamic and ever-changing
no two projects are the same.

I also enjoy the opportunity
to research the history of
each parcel of land, which
adds a unique and meaningful
dimension to the work.

Additionally, the field
continues to evolve with
advancing technology, which

keeps the profession both
challenging and rewarding.”

What is Surveying is a branch of applied

Surveying? mathematics that is concerned
with analyzing and recording
the characteristics of physical

surroundings to help design, plan,

map, or construct.

Surveyors measure just about anything on the

land, in the sky, or in the water. We depend on
surveying to ensure order in the physical world
around us, and it plays an integral role in land
development—roads, cities, bridges, utilities—
you name it. Surveyors help shape the future.
