T
he Lloyd Town Board recently proclaimed March 21-26 as Surveyor’s
Week in Lloyd and encouraged “all
citizens to recognize the many contributions and the ongoing dedication of surveyors to our community and throughout
the United States.” There are approximately 45,000 professional surveyors in
the United States.
The proclamation pointed out that
the profession has changed dramatically since the Colonial Era, moving from
simple descriptions and locations of land
boundaries to present day development
of hydrographic and engineering surveys and geodetic surveys that are used
“to determine precise global positioning
for activities such as aircraft and missile navigation and cartographic surveys
used for mapping and charting.”
