CALL OF DUTY

Photo of Surveyors from Coventry OfficeSome of the braver Surveyors from the Coventry office of Survey Solutions recently spent a day in active combat.  They took a well earned break from Land Surveying to run around the woods at a local paintball venue.  The photo shows a few of the lads looking more than a bit nervous before getting ready for battle.

Midlands Director, Paul Singleton (pictured third from the right) afterwards said “It was hard work and a bit painful at times but a great laugh.”

NEVER TOO COLD FOR SURVEYING!

Even during the coldest winter periods our surveyors are able to carry on working.  This is because Survey Solutions only use Leica Geosystems survey instruments which are specially designed to operate in all conditions. 

Every survey instrument manufactured in their Swiss factory is separately tested under laboratory conditions to ensure that it can measure accurately and consistently at temperatures from +50ÂșC to -20ÂșC, before being approved and certified.

James Cooper, Managing Director, said “It’s critical for us to have the best equipment available so that our Surveyors are ready for any situation, and that includes the cold.”

Pictured is a Leica technician with the unenviable task of checking an instrument in the temperature camber.
