CEA - How Surveyors and Civil Engineers Work Together with Cory George

“Your design is only going to be as good as the survey that it’s drawn on”. That’s how today’s guest emphasizes the importance of land surveying for civil engineering projects.

Cory George is both a licensed Professional Engineer in NC and SC and a licensed Professional Land Surveyor in NC, SC, TN, FL, and DC. After “falling into the field” while still a major in college doing research for the engineering department, he has now started his own surveying and engineering business called Pilot Surveying and Engineering.

Cory and Isaac discuss various aspects of the surveying profession, as well as how surveyors and civil engineers need to closely work together. Tune in to find out how civil engineers can become surveyors, the current tremendous need for surveyors, the differences between colonial states and public lands when it comes to surveying, as well as how Cory started his business from the ground up---and how you can get started too.
