• Cartography – which includes creating road maps, topo maps and navigation charts.

Other surveying opportunities are available in the following areas:
• Archeological Surveying
• Forensic Surveying
• Minerals and Mining
• Oil Field Surveying

Salaries, benefits and compensation vary with the locale, the employee’s primary assignment, the size of the firm and the availability of personnel. Most surveying and mapping personnel, however, enjoy median to higher salaries for areas in which they are employed.
