The Rhode Island Society of Professional Land Surveyors (RISPLS) celebrates the 2024 National Surveyors Week. This year, National Surveyors Week is being held March 17-23.
National Surveyors Week is an annual week long tribute to the important contributions land surveyors make to society and public benefit by their professional dedication helping private citizens and their communities with boundary determinations, infrastructure improvements, placing roads, bridges and public buildings, and other contributions aligned to their roles including land surveying, mapping, and land information systems.
Land surveyors combine science, technology and historical data to determine where things are located on the face of the earth (and above and below, too). These data are then used by many stakeholders for everything from understanding where their property lines are located, how natural and manmade features relate to those boundaries, or each other, and for design, construction, transportation and mapping.
As you move around your community this week, look around at the properties, buildings, roads, and utilities , and in all of those you’ll find that land surveying and surveyors played a critical and important role in how those items where created.
