Equipment

 

The Alberta Land Surveyors' Association is always seeking donations to its collection. This includes but is not limited to surveying instruments, surveying tools and equipment, drafting computing equipment, survey monumentation, maps and survey plans, photographs and slides, audio tapes and videos, historic survey books, surveyor diaries and memoirs.

Although the collection focuses on objects, which were used in or are otherwise connected with land surveying in Alberta, the Association will collect objects:

  • from other geographical areas which are representative of land surveying throughout the world and which help to illustrate the general context of land surveying in Alberta, or
  • of fields related to land surveying and which help to illustrate the context of land surveying in society. This could include fields such as geodesy, hydrographic surveying, topographic and engineering surveying, mapping, remote sensing, town planning and law.
