As any professional land surveyor knows, we are a part of a great profession. It offers tremendous variety, the chance to work outdoors, the opportunity to apply math and geography skills in the real world, and the satisfaction of contributing something of lasting value and importance.
For me, it has always been about doing something different every day, exploring new technology and making a difference by helping landowners solve problems. So why aren’t young people lining up to become surveyors? Because they don’t know about it.
