520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. Assesses the impact of technology on the role of the land surveyor. Looks at the development of GPS and suggests that satellite navigation may free the land surveyor from an overemphasis on measurement. Argues that this will not necessarily deskill the profession. Gives a definition of a land surveyor. Supports the view that university courses will increasingly reflect the rise in the use of technology and, with high rates of pay suggesting a high level of demand, the main concern is the lack of qualified staff.
