Good Data Collection
Make sure batteries are charged and cables in good working order before going to the field
On a larger project, run survey control separate from the data collection
Always shoot the distance when taking a backsite
When finishing your work each day leave at least two points in the area you are going to continue work the following day Bring a print out of the data and field check the points before continuing work the next day
Keep a secure raw data file on each days work
If you are working in the same area for a long period of time , establish coordinates on local radio station towers as an azimuth check
If you are doing vertical elevations make sure you are doing the check of your vertical compensator
In extreme hot weather conditions try to shield your data collector from the direct sun
For best results use a prism pole that is in good condition and has had its level bubble checked When not in use keep the prism pole in padded case
Good Data Collection
Good Data Collection
Have your instrument mounted on a tripod that is in good condition A good check on your tripod is to take a site on a survey station After tightening the clamping screws, take the tripod where the instrument is attached and twist it until the cross hairs leave the target When your grip is released the cross hairs should return to the original point

Seeing the Future: STAKELESS!
AS GPS machine control makes its way onto more surveyingAnd construction sites. Who will provide the data and how?
All data is not created equal.
Does this technology benefit the contractor more than the Surveyor of engineer?
Communicating between the surveyor and contractor.
Is there a place for my company in machine control construction?
