About Us

From Here to There

Founded in 2004, The Surveying Zone, Inc. is a different kind of website for land surveyors and mappers.  What is in the best interest of the land surveyors and mappers?   A member based website that seeks out what is in the best interest of surveyors and mappers while keeping and forming better relationships with clients, vendors, educators, and the public.

Many surveyors feel orphaned by the business community.  Surveying Zone is here to meet those needs and to help create empowering experiences for mapping professionals.  Different than a trade journal or professional organization, Surveying Zone is a resource in which geomatics professionals can go to and make informed business decisions.   By allowing Surveying Zone to evolve from the active participation of our broad based members, a new community is created that will lead the surveyors and mappers into the future and do it on their terms.  We’ll get you there from here.

We do not have to work within the confines of a large corporation nor budget of only subscribing advertisers.  We see Surveying Zone as an investment into the future of ALL surveyors and mappers and a way to give back, to make better.

The Surveying Zone community engages Surveying and Mapping professionals in the ultimate peer-to-peer experience. They provide the information, the tools, and the services that members need to get their jobs done. Surveying Zone's members, representing all segments of the Surveying and Mapping industry, turn to the site for business decision support and professional advice organized by job function or topic.
