Surveying and other musings: September 2008
http://beaconse.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Surveying and other musings. Friday, September 5, 2008. Yes, it's another survey-related blog today so if you're looking for an update in what's going on in my life, you can skip this one! It matched exactly to the "assumed" bearing! I had kind of wondered why, if someone was assuming a bearing, they'd assume South 87 degrees 11 minutes 35 seconds West. Normally, we're not that good at guessing directions in the field so we probably would have assumed due west. If you established the bearings based on pu...

Surveying and other musings. Thursday, June 18, 2009. If It Doesn't Look Right. There have been a few times that we're completing a survey and when I determine the boundaries of properties based on deeds, I miss every single fence and other evidence of the boundaries on the property. Normally, it's some stupid mistake made by yours truly. However, when it doesn't appear that I've made a math mistake, I still try to go back and try to see.

Surveying and other musings: November 2009
http://beaconse.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Surveying and other musings. Saturday, November 28, 2009. For the past half-dozen or so years, my family has delivered Thanksgiving meals to those less fortunate through our church. It's a great time for us to spend together and a great teaching moment that we need to be grateful for what we have. However, this year my wife and kids each had another activity that day so I delivered meals by myself. Who needed our help from time to time. Tuesday, November 10, 2009. Topographic Surveys - Part 1.

Surveying and other musings: What type of survey do I need?
http://beaconse.blogspot.com/2009/11/what-type-of-survey-do-i-need.html
Surveying and other musings. Sunday, November 8, 2009. What type of survey do I need? I seem to get questions all the time about what type of survey an engineer or architect should specify to get what their client will. Need While there are many different items that can be included in each type of survey, I'm only going to touch on three and try to give a basic description of each starting with the easiest (and probably the least expensive) and progressing to the most complex. A client can specify that t...

Surveying and other musings. Wednesday, October 28, 2009. Signed off by who? He could write a description and ended up causing a lawsuit. We're not platting a new subdivision, asking for a variance or rezoning - just trying to record a stinking survey! This has to be the most ridiculous example of waaaaaaaaaaay too many layers of government being involved in such a simple process. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Signed off by who?
