17-1022.01 - Geodetic Surveyors

Related occupations for task:

Compute, retrace, or adjust existing surveys of features such as highway alignments, property boundaries, utilities, control and other surveys to match the ground elevation-dependent grids, geodetic grids, or property boundaries and to ensure accuracy and continuity of data used in engineering, surveying, or construction projects.

17-1022.00	Surveyors 3 closely related tasks Calculate heights, depths, relative positions, property lines, and other characteristics of terrain. Determine longitudes and latitudes of important features and boundaries in survey areas, using theodolites, transits, levels, and satellite-based global positioning systems (GPS). Compute geodetic measurements and interpret survey data to determine positions, shapes, and elevations of geomorphic and topographic features.
17-3031.02	Mapping Technicians 3 closely related tasks Calculate latitudes, longitudes, angles, areas, or other information for mapmaking, using survey field notes or reference tables. Compare topographical features or contour lines with images from aerial photographs, old maps, or other reference materials to verify the accuracy of their identification. Compute and measure scaled distances between reference points to establish relative positions of adjoining prints and enable the creation of photographic mosaics.
17-3031.01	Surveying Technicians 1 closely related task Perform calculations to determine earth curvature corrections, atmospheric impacts on measurements, traverse closures and adjustments, azimuths, level runs, and placement of markers.
