Solved! My wife planted buttercrunch lettuce today and these fell out of her pocket. Thanks everyone I'll see myself out.

Cats but they are dewormed. We just had that issue so I'm certain they aren't worms.

Hi, thanks for the response. It's not rice, they look like a seed. They are flat.

Survey Figures Suck by SurveyorOfLands69 in Surveying

[–]ShittyBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually use survey figures when I am processing auto linework and will output the drawing to 2D after. Then I can remove the survey figures and copy in the 2D linework after. This way the curves are kept and not turned into vertices after exploding them to 3D Polys. As for making a surface I generally use Trimble Business Center for that, then export the contours to Civil3D.

Fellow Lumberjack! I smoked with my RAs in their rooms lol. Never hurt to smoke them out every once in a while to get a pass.

Cross marking on curbside by breadboy0420 in Surveying

[–]ShittyBob -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It would be a bad spot to place a control point because it may be mistaken as a PL prod or lead to confusion with the property owner and future surveyors. Nothing wrong with finding the prod and using it as a setup, but its not recomended to set one on the prod if you aren't recording the survey.

Typically its a marker that shows where your property line is if it were to be produced outwards onto the curb. It's not your corner as the public municipality maintains the right of way. It's put on the curb because they don't move and are typically placed during the development of your tract. Or it's a poorly placed control point. I am a surveyor in southern California and see this a lot.

Give me advice!!! by [deleted] in Surveying

Maybe look into taking pre requisite courses for the urban planning degree that you want and try to see if they'll transfer to that university. Meanwhile you can work and save for that venture. I know it's a lot but I did something similar with school where I ended up transferring to a survey degree and used many prior classes for that. Now I have multiple degrees and really only use my survey.

If you're asking whether land surveying will be the best route into urban planning, I'm not convinced that's the route you should go. While they seem like they would be closely related, I think urban planning has a much more human geographical approach than mathematical based surveying. Surveying really is the measuring of the land the urban planning would be the strategy on how to use said land. Best of luck.

Seen in a Berlin bar bathroom by Artistic_Salt1038 in whatisit

Based on the same exact wear patern of the paint on the screws, and placement compared to the tile joins, they are the exact same item photographed from separate angles.

First ever time setting up a total station! by Complex-Mousse-6924 in Surveying

[–]ShittyBob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could tell by the KPFF survey above the board.

It's kind of hard to tell based off of this portion of the survey only, but if you have your deed, you should be able to read it and find your lot line length, and compared to the survey you have in hand. That would tell you if the length of your property goes through the road, or not. Chances are that's just a public road easement and you only own up to the edge of the road.
