Problem Corner
Every month's issue of Professional Surveyor Magazine presents two surveying problems as a challenge to test and hone the skills of our readers. Those problems, and their solutions, are presented here every month, within a few days of the release of the magazine. Note that both the problems and their solutions are presented in Adobe® Portable Document Files (PDFs®). To view these, the Adobe® Reader is needed and can be found here.
