Excellent Reference Library Text for a PLS

This book is simply excellent. It covers surveying subjects thoroughly and with great technical depth. It taught me to calculate state plane coordinate conversions by hand so that I understand what happens in a computer. This is the type of text that will elevate the PLS profession.

Top of the line

By far the best surveying text available. It covers both basic concepts and more in-depth topics with equal clarity. This text is a must for surveying students, and practicing surveyors alike.

The Bible

Good book and reference.Lots of examples and exercises with lilustrations and up to date theory. A great buy for the surveying student.
