JOB REQUIREMENTS: Make exact measurements and determine property boundaries. Provide data relevant to the shape, contour, gravitation, location, elevation, or dimension of land or land features on or near the earth\'s surface for engineering, mapmaking, mining, land evaluation, construction, and other purposes. Adjust surveying instruments to maintain their accuracy. Analyze survey objectives and specifications to prepare survey proposals or to direct others in survey proposal preparation. Calculate heights, depths, relative positions, property lines, and other characteristics of terrain. Compute geodetic measurements and interpret survey data to determine positions, shapes, and elevations of geomorphic and topographic features. Conduct research in surveying and mapping methods using knowledge of techniques of photogrammetric map compilation and electronic data processing. Coordinate findings with the work of engineering and architectural personnel, clients, and others concerned with projects. Determine longitudes and latitudes of important features and boundaries in survey areas using theodolites, transits, levels, and satellite-based global positioning systems (GPS). Direct or conduct surveys to establish legal boundaries for properties, based on legal deeds and titles. Establish fixed points for use in making maps, using geodetic and engineering instruments. Plan and conduct ground surveys designed to establish baselines, elevations, and other geodetic measurements. Prepare and maintain sketches, maps, reports, and legal descriptions of surveys to describe, certify, and assume liability for work performed. Prepare or supervise preparation of all data, charts, plots, maps, records, and documents related to surveys. Record the results of surveys including the shape, contour, location, elevation, and dimensions of land or land features. Search legal records, survey records, and land titles to obtain information about property boundaries in areas to be surveyed. Train assistants and helpers, and direct their work in such activities as performing surveys or drafting maps. Verify the accuracy of survey data including measurements and calculations conducted at survey sites. Write descriptions of property boundary surveys for use in deeds, leases, or other legal documents. Verify the accuracy of survey data, including measurements and calculations conducted at survey sites. Prepare, or supervise preparation of, all data, charts, plots, maps, records, and documents related to surveys. Direct aerial surveys of specified geographical areas. Conduct research in surveying and mapping methods, using knowledge of photogrammetric map compilation and electronic data processing. ***** OTHER EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS: The successful candidate must have an Bachelor\'s or Associate\'s degree in land surveying with a minimum of five (5) years of experience, be proficient with AutoCAD Civil 3D and have a Wisconsin PLS License.
