[OSGeo-Discuss] What GeoSpatial Open Source Software do Surveyorsuse?

[Landon Blake]

Cameron,

I recently gave a presentation entitled "introduction to vector GIS for
land surveyors" at the joint California Land Surveyor Association/Nevada
Association of Land Surveyors Annual Conference in Reno, Nevada. It
included demonstrations of how to use OpenJUMP in a land surveying
practice.

I would be happy to share the materials from my presentation with you.

I currently use OpenJUMP to perform the following tasks in my own survey
practice:

- Project Planning
- Parcel Management
- Preparation of GIS Deliverables from Survey/CAD Data

I also have written some AutoLISP routines that help improve CAD/GIS
integration. I haven't put in as much time on this as I want to, but my
code does currently support export of WKT geometries from CAD using
AutoLISP.

Let me know if any of this is helpful. You might also visit:

I give you my best wishes for your presentation to FIG.

I'm giving a presentation on GeoSpatial Open Source at the international

Surveyors conference here in Sydney.

I'd like advice on what use cases and Open Source packages I should 
focus on during the presentation.
Feedback from Surveyors welcomed.
