Nature of the Work About this section To Top
Measuring and mapping the earth’s surface are the responsibilities of several different types of workers. Traditional land surveyors establish official land, air space, and water boundaries. They write descriptions of land for deeds, leases, and other legal documents; define air space for airports; and measure construction and mineral sites. Other surveyors provide data relevant to the shape, contour, location, elevation, or dimension of land or land features. Cartographers compile geographic, political, and cultural information and prepare maps of large areas. Photogrammetrists measure and analyze aerial photographs to prepare detailed maps and drawings. Surveying technicians assist land surveyors by operating survey instruments and collecting information in the field, and by performing computations and computer-aided drafting in offices. Mapping technicians calculate mapmaking information from field notes. They also draw topographical maps and verify their accuracy. Land surveyors manage survey parties who measure distances, directions, and angles between points and elevations of points, lines, and contours on, above, and below the earth’s surface. They plan the fieldwork, select known survey reference points, and determine the precise location of important features in the survey area. Surveyors research legal records, look for evidence of previous boundaries, and analyze the data to determine the location of boundary lines. They also record the results of the survey, verify the accuracy of data, and prepare plots, maps, and reports. Surveyors who establish boundaries must be licensed by the State in which they work, and are known as Professional Land Surveyors. Professional Land Surveyors are sometimes called to provide expert testimony in court cases concerning surveying matters.

WHAT DOES A CARTOGRAPHER DO?
CARTOGRAPHERS make maps. Cartography involves many processes that require the skills of a wide range of specialists and technicians. Some workers in cartographic occupations perform routine work while others have technical jobs requiring years of training and experience. In large organizations, some workers may specialize in one function such as compiling or editing. In smaller organizations, job duties may be combined according to the type of maps produced. ... www.caljobs.ca.gov or at America’s Job Bank at www.ajb.dni.us

Surveying encompasses land information management and the use of the latest technology, including satellites for positioning and remote sensing. This information is managed and presented using sophisticated computer systems. The programme recognizes these needs and that graduates may be called upon to act primarily as professional surveyors, geographic information scientists consultants, managers, teachers or researchers and indeed graduates may take on several of those roles during their careers.

Page: Echo Sounding
Early Sound Methods Aristotle was one of the first, if not the first, to recognize that sound could be heard in water as well as air. Two millennia later, Leonardo da Vinci observed that by placing a long tube in the water and the other end to the ear one could hear ships from afar. Francis Bacon was another early observer who discovered that sound can travel through water. For the fifty years following Maury, most sound work was devoted to horizontal propagation including such innovations as ship-to-ship signaling, shore-to-ship signaling, and the detection of objects in the water (icebergs, in response to the TITANIC disaster and submarines in WWI). Sound in the Coast and Geodetic Survey Concurrent with improvements in recording devices were improvements in the sound projectors and receivers used for echo sounding. Early devices tended to use acoustic waves in the audible human range and were described as sonic. Later models increased frequency past audible range and were termed supersonic, or ultrasonic. The transmitting units evolved from hammer or striker units to electromagnetic, magnetostrictive, or piezoelectric. For early sonic-type receivers either a carbon button or electromagnetic-type element was employed while for supersonic frequencies, echoes were detected on magneto-strictive or piezoelectric receivers.
