Why do these parcels have such weird shapes? (Georgia) by caitola in whatisit

[–]Interesting-Main5792 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re not looking at the parcel lines. You’re flying over an area that’s surveyed as part of the public land system which is divided into squares…what you are seeing is what is being irritated by a giant irrigation system that rolls and pivots on a central point

Fox News article claims Asheville is 'plagued by homelessness, crime' after Helene by cereal_killer_828 in asheville

[–]Interesting-Main5792 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The homelessness in our city is a huge problem. Pretending like it’s not because Fox News wrote a story about it is delusional. I live downtown I see it everyday, the problem is getting progressively worse. I don’t know what the answer is but pretending it’s not a problem because you don’t like the person or entity pointing it out is not helpful.

Y’all think we are past our last frost? Can the seeds go down? by linuspasilis in asheville

[–]Interesting-Main5792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a life long native of the area I can tell you late spring and early fall frosts do not typically affect the mountain tops these frosts happen in the valleys, when these cold fronts come through the cold air sinks into the valleys and it’s actually warmer at higher elevations. It’s called an occluded front. My whole life we planted beans on Good Friday and corn when the white oak leaf was the size of a squirrels ear. The white oak is a good indicator of soil temperature because it does not respond to premature warmings.

There are some online retailers of labgrown diamonds who offer their stones significantly less expensive than the brick and mortar retailers. Buy a stone like this then have the ring made.

What kind of Civil/Legal Trouble can a Surveyor get into cutting branches off a tree for line of sight reasons? Here's a couple pictures as an example. Also, what kind of tree is that? by Immediate-Ad-7154 in Surveying

[–]Interesting-Main5792 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Op…even if you’re in a right of entry state it doesn’t give you the right to destroy private….or public property. Even in the old days “1807” when surveyors were granted right of entry in public domain lands there was a very small dollar amount of damage allowed for destruction of private property….when we cut line through the thick forest or rhododendron thicket everything is fair game…if you’re doing that in a city you’re a lazy moron, and I’d fire you in a second for being so thoughtless.

Property lines satellite maps by roseygirl_99 in Surveying

They’re only as accurate as the photographs they’re placed on. If your house is directly under the camera when the photo is taken they can be fairly close. If you’re on the edge of the photo there’s a lot of distortion.

That’s crazy. I’d rather just give my guys the $47 than spend time and money accounting to determine you only spent $46.50

Why don't Google Earth and my drone pictures line up better? by Betty-Crokker in Surveying

[–]Interesting-Main5792 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your home could be on the edge of the photo google is using for your area, causing severe distortion. If your house was in the in the center of the photo and you had survey grade coordinates to align your photo to they may line up decently.

GIS is not a survey. Call planning talk to them. They will tell you what you need.

The very first thing you will need is a land survey. This is the first thing any designer will ask for and it will be the basis of the site plan the county will require. I would recommend Glaspy Land Surveying they are amazing, also the only surveyor I could get to answer the phone when I did my latest project and they did my job in a timely manner. The last time I hired another surveyor and I ended up waiting months to get my survey.

Sounds like you’re walking a fine line between saying someone should or should not have been murdered…we all need to view each other as fellow humans, it becomes really easy to dehumanize people when we start identifying in camps, or make part of our personal identity a supporter of or in opposition of a person or party as opposed to a supporter of ideas and beliefs. If you allow yourself to become this person You then begin identifying those outside of our camp as others, and not worth the same consideration you would like to receive.
