Welcome to the Open Access Surveying Library
Material Organization
Subject matter is arranged by Topic in the Open Access menu. Selecting a Topic lists its Chapters which in turn are further divided into Sections. Most Topics include Self-Study problems.
Content is evolving and will be added as time permits. This is a one-man show so please let me know of grammar errors, typos, etc. Suggestions for other Topics or additions to existing ones are always welcome.
A site account is not necessary to access or use any of the Open Access material.

Software
The Software area contains Excel workbooks and Windows software in support of various Open Access topics. It also includes other software provided as freeware for educational purposes. The Software area also includes links to free HP-33s and HP-35s calculator software as well a HP-35s desktop emulator. Also, from the WayBack Machine, a Surveyor's Module Inc (SMI)/HP-48 desktop emulator is included.
New (22 Apr '25): I just wrote and uploaded a basic user manual for the MnDOT HP-35s surveying software. If you use, or are thinking of using, the MnDOT software, you can download the manual here. It's in just-about-final draft form so I would appreciate feedback and corrections.
