I would like to start that discussion about the Open Source software RTK-LIB that allows anyone to post-process GNSS observations (RINEX) for free and also to perform RTK (RTCM).

It seems UAV hobbyists and robots makers are more familiar than surveyors with the RTK-LIB. That library has been developed by Mr TAKAZU from Japan. 

RTKLIB is an open source program package for standard and precise positioning with GNSS (global navigation satellite system). RTKLIB consists of a portable program library and several APs (application programs) utilizing the library.

I would very much appreciate your feedbacks on that topic and on what GNSS post-processing software you are working with ? It seems post-processing a bit of fashion nowadays but RTK-LIB can also carry on your observations in RTK mode and even using PPP.

I have agreed to speak October the 28th, 2020 at an 8 hour webinar titled Texas Professional Land Surveying Law and Ethics. I will be covering compliance and enforcement procedures, minimum standards of practice and professional responsibility and rules of conduct, established by codified Texas law regulating land surveyors. I have spoken at many of theses seminars and the last one I did had more than 30 Land Surveyors in attendance. Halfmoon has not yet posted a link to sign up but I hope you will join me for this education opportunity.

Hi everyone, 

I'm Ziyad and I'm reletively new to land surveying. I've interned at a company in New Mexico that went bankrupt and was helping the chief land surveyor then. I since moved to Wyoming and now I'm trying to figure out how to get back into the profession. I'm currently going to school for it though I'm unsure about the non ABET accredited degrees that are land surveying related.

I had a question about LSIT in Wyoming. Is it necessary? I see many land surveryor jobs come up that require it, though when I google it I only really get results for LSAT, which is a Law related exam. If this is necessary, how do you go about getting one? 

Thanks,

Ziyad J
