SOFTWARE
AutoCAD 2007 – electronic
drawings, drafting
Carlson SurvCE – electronic data
collection, cogo and processing point codes
ESRI ArcGIS – research, compile regional
maps, generate tins, georeference photos
Google Earth – aerial photography
(attempted kite – didn’t fly)

TECHY SPECS
Units – metric
Site coordinates – Palestine Grid/geodetic
azimuth
Geodetic Control – British Ordnance Survey
Point #98, elevation = 989.782m
Translation to UTM/GPS is possible
Absolute accuracy estimated at 1m, relative
accuracy estimated at 5cm

TIPS
Drink lots of water; flavor/vita packs nice
Wear rugged, long sleeved, loose fitting clothes
Temps ranged from mid 60s to 100s (°F)
Dust/sand/wind – protect face, optics, electronics
Travel adapter AND converter essential; rechargeable AA batteries are nice; ditto thermometer.
*Handheld GPS and 2-way radios nice if you can get them in-country*
