The following image and video are a quick snap shot of how many of our clients are using the point cloud data on their local machines – with out the need of a fancy PC or expensive software they can view, measure and take snap shots from the point cloud. This has proven extremely valuable asset for all of the professional services we supply data for. The LGS Jet Stream Viewer (free software) can load up LGS files very quickly and allow of the key stakeholders simple and instant access to the point cloud and 360 views from each scan station location.

POB ( Point of Beginning) Interview - Career Notes: School of Surveying - Part 2

Back in 2018, after Steve had graduated from The Survey School, he along with another student who was also graduating that year were asked to take part in a web based interview with POB Magazing.

In part one of our special Career Notes feature, we spoke with Andrew Crumpler, a senior tutor of the Survey Association’s (TSA) Surveying Course at the Survey School of Worcester. The course aims to train the next generation of surveyors and combat the shortage of surveying training throughout the country.

As mentioned in the last column, this year, the Survey School celebrated the graduation of 31 students. Nine of those students gained distinctions, four that received prizes for outstanding achievement, and two students, who travelled from Abu Dhabi specifically for the hands-on training in the principles of surveying.

POB was able to speak with two graduates of the Surveying Course: Rafe Holmes and Steven Smith.

Holmes, of the WYG Group, a professional services firm that operates in 50 locations around the world, was presented with the Chartered ICES prize for “Best Assignment” for his ‘first class’ surveying and setting out design for a new housing estate and access road.

Smith, of IIC Technologies, a geospatial solutions and services provider, was the first winner of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) prize. To demonstrate their support for the TSA Course, a new and additional prize for this year was awarded by RICS for the “Best Measured Building Assignment.” Smith won for his very clear explanation of the laser scan surveying process and how to get the best results.
