Project Description Heading link

Land surveying is one of the oldest engineering concepts that has been practiced for centuries. Tools and techniques have evolved in order to help land surveyors record the details and topography of terrain. Extreme weather conditions and complex landscapes are the most challenging problems that engineers face when conducting a site survey. We have designed a system that would allow the surveyor to create a topographic image of land from a secure location. The device will be equipped with multiple sensor modules to measure humidity levels, temperature, distance, and height from a reference position. These data are wirelessly transmitted to the engineer’s computer, a topographic image is created, and all the data is securely stored on an SD card.
