Survey Engineer
Survey Engineers … are not superhuman. They make mistakes in their assumptions, in their calculations, in their conclusions. That they make mistakes is forgivable; that they catch them is imperative. Thus it is the essence of modern engineering not only to be able to check one’s own work but also to have one’s work checked and to be able to check the work of others.

Career Definition
Survey engineers measure the shape and contours of terrain above ground and under water to ensure the accuracy of maps and boundary markers. Their measurements are used to plan roadways and tunnels, build pipelines and bridges, track the movement of pollutants in waterways and determine ocean floor erosion rates after storms and earthquakes. Survey engineers often specialize; a forensics surveyor may reconstruct a traffic accident by analyzing skid marks and road angles, while a hydrographic surveyor may search for fault lines as part of an offshore crew. Many work in the field, collecting information while others are based in an office, analyzing data. They are employed by private engineering or surveying firms, government agencies and municipalities, or as independent consultants.
How to Become a Survey Engineer
Required Education
A Bachelor of Science degree in surveying engineering or a related field, such as civil or electrical engineering or geomatics, is generally required for state licensure. Upon graduation, survey engineers take an assessment exam before entering the workforce, followed by a national proficiency exam and state licensing exam once they've worked under the supervision of an experienced surveyor for four years. The National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS) website lists survey engineering programs accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) (www.surveyingcareer.com). The NSPS also offers voluntary certification programs in Survey Engineering specialties (www.nspsmo.org).
Skills Required
Survey engineers must be detail-oriented and analytical, with strong math skills and a working knowledge of related disciplines, such as geology, photogrammetry, and Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology. An understanding of land-use management principles and the legal aspects of surveying is essential. Surveyors must be computer proficient and familiar with current hardware and software used in their specialized field. They need good communication skills and the ability to work independently and as part of a team. Surveyors who work outdoors should be able to stand for long periods of time, climb, hike and carry heavy equipment.
Economic Outlook and Financial Forecast
The BLS predicts a 10% increase in job opportunities for surveyors during the 2012-2022 period. Survey engineering professionals work in a variety of settings, but the BLS predicts that most will continue to be employed in architecture and engineering-related businesses, such as construction. Salaries vary by experience, specialty, and employer. In May 2012, the BLS reported that median annual earning for surveyors were $56,230, with the lowest-paid ten percent earning less than $32,190 and the highest-paid ten percent earning more than $90,920.
Surveying Technician
For those interested in survey work but who may not want to pursue surveyor education requirements, becoming a surveying technician may be a good option. Surveying technicians assist surveyors in gathering site measurements. They also place measurement markers, input collected information into the computer and find old survey reference points. A high school education is required, and many employers look for surveying technicians who have received additional training from a vocational program. Based on data from the BLS, surveying and mapping technicians should experience employment growth of 14% from 2012-2022, resulting in the creation of 7,300 new positions. In May of 2012, the BLS determined that these technicians earned an annual median salary of $39,670.
Civil Engineer
If using surveying data to design infrastructure projects like bridges, tunnels and roads sounds intriguing, consider a career in civil engineering. The many duties of a civil engineer include researching maps and surveying reports, developing budgets and cost estimates, preparing permit applications, drafting construction drawings and blueprints, analyzing soil and building materials, supervising surveyor activities and examining government regulations. A bachelor's degree in civil engineering is necessary to enter the field and a master's degree is often required for higher-level positions. Civil engineers who offer services to the public are also required to obtain state licensure. As reported by the BLS in 2012, almost 273,000 civil engineers were employed in the country and received $79,340 in median yearly wages. The BLS also predicts that employment opportunities for these engineers will increase by 20% between 2012 and 2022.

Traversing Excel Sheet
Overview:
Traverse XL provides an
easy way to input and analyze traverse data for closed polygon traverses as
well as open linear traverses. This program uses the graphing tools provided in
Excel and automatically displays the traverse data as it is entered.
For closed polygon
traverses, the program balances the traverse using the compass method, provides
statistics regarding misclosure and precision and calculates traverse perimeter
and area. For open linear traverses, the program determines the distance and
direction of the ending point relative to the starting point. Some additional
features that are built in to the traverse worksheets are the ability to rotate
traverse data as well as a way to convert horizontal measurement data from
meters to feet (or vice versa).
In addition to the data
entry and traverse analysis worksheets, there is a page that provides methods
for converting angular data. Finally, an example traverse is provided that
includes an annotated map showing the type of output that can be generated using
the charting functions provided in Excel.
Instructions:
Enter traverse data in to
the appropriate yellow shaded cells on the 'Data Entry' worksheet. Traverse
points must be specified by either entering x,y coordinates or by entering a
combination of a distance and an angle. With respect to distances, the spreadsheet
is designed to accept either horizontal distance directly or calculate a
horizontal distance when a slope distance and slope percentage is supplied.
With respect to angles, the spreadsheet will accept either azimuth or bearings.
The data from the 'Data
Entry' worksheet is automatically linked to the 'Compass Rule Adjustment' and
'Linear Traverse' worksheets.
Worksheets Included:
Data Entry:This worksheet should be
used for enteringr traverse data. Traverse data must be entered in the yellow
shaded cells only. A valid traverse point is defined by x,y coordinates OR a
combination of a distance measurement and angle measurement. If you choose to
paste coordinate point data into this worksheet, you might consider using
Excel's 'Paste Special' -> Values option so that the cell formats are
preserved.
Compass Rule Adjustment: This worksheet can be used
for analyzing closed (polygon) traverse measurements and provides tools for
assessing traverse closure. In addition to the traverse measurements input by
the user, adjusted measurements for a mathematically closed traverse are automatically
generated and can be copied for use in other applications. A visual display contains a map of the
original and adjusted traverse measurements.
Linear Traverse: This worksheet can be used
when analyzing open (linear) traverse measurements and provides measurement
statistics including distances (Euclidean and total traverse length),
directions between starting and ending points and number of traverse courses. A visual display of the traverse course is
included.
Conversion Tools: This worksheet contains
tools that allow users to convert angle units and to calculate distance and
direction between a set of coordinates.
Example Data Entry: This worksheet contains
example data for a closed polygon traverse.
Example Compass Adjustment: This worksheet
demonstrates the sample output from the values in the 'Example Data Entry'
worksheet.
Example Traverse Map: This chart demonstrates
the type of traverse maps that can be generated using this program.
Other Comments /
Suggestions:
If you wish to use this
workbook to analyze multiple traverses, you might consider saving the original
file as a template (File -> Save As Type (Template: *.xlt). When you wish to
enter data for a traverse, open Excel, select 'FIle-> New' and choose the
template name. This will ensure that the workbook will always be opened in the
same state.
