Land surveying is among the oldest and most captivating professions known to mankind. It has roots dating back to the early civilizations and kingdoms, where it was used to establish land ownership through boundary records and to aid in the construction of renowned monuments. Essentially, land surveying plays a critical role in determining land ownership, facilitating land transactions, and is particularly vital to Cowan Group Engineering (CGE) within the civil engineering industry.
