And for a little fun, stick around until the end, where I reveal a "modern twist" on this old relic-I may or may not have added some bright yellow paint (don’t worry, surveyors definitely didn’t use yellow paint in 1880!). ...

    That prickly plant is one of the Hakea species that I have bumped into many times. They are very hardy and have have a woody fruit. The tips of the prickles seem to break off and get stuck in your skin only to get infected over the next two days with all the associated fun! These plants seem to love the sandstone country around Sydney that has survived more or less intact due to the poor soil quality they thrive in.

    • @globalsurveyor
      @globalsurveyor Před 10 dny

      Hi there. Yes I studied at USQ - Uni of Southern Queensland so I could work full time and whilst I learnt a lot on the job, yes you 1st need a uni degree and then need to get Registered as a Surveyor before you can legally undertake any survey relative to boundaries. If you work with someone who is registered then you can undertake work under their supervision. However if you work by yourself, its impossible to undertake this kind of work.... Glad to hear you like cadastral. Its better than being on building sites in my opinion. Thanks for watching -- have plenty of cadastral videos there!

    I watch a lot of your videos. And, they are enjoyable to watch. I am not a land surveyor, although I do a lot of commercial construction layout. I am interested in purchasing or an upgrade to a Leica total robotic station. If you were to do it again with Leica products, would there be any station, upgrade or overall change in product or accessories? Right now my issue is connectivity in terms of controller to station, or that it seems to be the issue. I have an older Trimble RPT600 that works great aside of radio signal reliability. Is this ever an issue at reasonable distances and reasonable interference expectations using Leica products?

    • @globalsurveyor
      @globalsurveyor Před 10 dny

      Hi. Sorry for slow reply! I'm a Leica user through and through! The Leica TS16 is a really good robotic total station. Mine is about 4 years old. The newer versions now have an automatic height of instrument laser and better tracking capabilities. Mine still has awesome ATR and power search functions including Filter Learn which scans the area for all targets and excludes them so that when using robotic the S16 locks only onto you and not prisms. The CS20 controller is rugged and has a good keyboard. I'm not a fan of the touch screen controllers only. I prefer to use buttons also. I can use the CS20 and control not only the TS16 but also the GS18 (GNSS) so one controller for 2 devices... Its swaps between the 2 easy. My TS16 has a 1000m laser range for reflectorless observations and the long range bluetooth works really well when the antenna is up so have no issues working robotically at a distance. I recently upgraded my antenna and bought the AP20 autopole which is a game chnager. The controller automatically updates the pole height when changed and the tilt function for both the AP20 an GS18 means I can get any shot imaginable. I do like Trimble but the latest controller is very large.. The R12i GNSS is much smaller than the Leica GS18 which is a bummer for Leica. Hopefully one day a smaller GNSS. I have a few videos here so thanks for watching and always looking for ideas if you want a question answered!

    Not a surveyor, but it appears that somebody was trying to be thoughtful about helping future surveyors. Also looks like it needs an additional spritz of marking paint since the last fluorescent orange is fading away. As far as the towers, people do need a place to live, and one would hope that they design the towers to fit in with the landscape. Having places to live near public transportation will increase the use of public transportation and perhaps reduce pollution.
