The NCEES Surveyor Trackable
Geocachers and Professional Surveyors (P.S.) share a passion for technology and the outdoors. They both use GPS and surrounding clues to locate hidden marks or objects. But there is a difference. Professional surveyors take that passion for technology and the outdoors to a higher level and turn it into a career.
The NCEES Surveyor Trackable captures that shared passion and brings the surveying profession to life for geocachers. Once you find an NCEES Surveyor Trackable, use its unique code to log it and keep it moving by placing it in another geocache. Before you know it, it will be exploring and mapping the great outdoors just like a Professional Surveyor (P.S.).
The NCEES Surveyor Trackable photo contest has ended, as of June 1, 2015. Please continue the fun and take photos at a National Geodetic Survey (NGS) marker and share it on Facebook or Twitter using the hashtag #PSnoboundaries! Visit geocaching.com/mark to learn about locating NGS survey markers.

This is an NCEES trackable that was released in March 2015. As a mechanical engineer, I have experience with surveyors, but I've never done surveying myself. The last time I worked with surveyors, it was on a railroad program measuring the elevation of a remediated track bed (trying to determine if it was sinking over time).
So, this trackable would like to visit rail related places. This could be railroad stations, "selfies" with trains, or other such places. Please share your photos on the trackable page, and keep this trackable moving!
