Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the ongoing evolution of surveying. The author, a surveyor, argues that there is a need for legal reporting of drainage district finances. Through examining data from the field, the author explores a number of civil engineering topics including open watercourse drains, topographic mapping, brick pavements, and more. Beyond the specific topics, the book argues for the importance of licensing land surveyors to ensure expertise and quality control in the field of land surveyingâ"a position that is supported by case studies and historical examples. The book includes a sample bill for the licensing of land surveyors that could be used as a model for legislation in other jurisdictions. The author explores the state of the art of surveying in the early 1900s, offering valuable insights for practicing professionals, civil engineering students, and historians of engineering and technology.
