Employment
Job opportunities are plentiful, exciting, and varied. Technology advancements in recent years will keep the demand for surveyors high.
In fact, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of
Labor, predicts the number of jobs for surveyors and mapping
scientists to increase 10 to 20 percent by 2012. For surveying
technicians, the number of jobs is expected to increase 21 to
35 percent by 2012. Surveying technicians assist land surveyors
by operating survey instruments and collecting information in
the field and by performing computations and computer-aided drafting
in offices.
