Product Description

As surveyors we are expected to re-establish a boundary in its original location using the best available evidence. Part of that process is to be able to understand what it was like to survey at the time the original post was set. That may have been more than 100 years ago when conditions, equipment and survey styles were very different than they are today. This webinar is intended to help us understand what it was like to survey in the 1800s and early 1900s
