Surveyors Field Books, Engineers Journal Books

Despite the many recent developments in digital point recording, surveying field books are still a staple in the surveying industry. A field book can be used to record important points which will be a vital tool when deciphering the points collected. Use a survey field book to record important information in the field that you will need to later reference once back in the office.

Field books come in a variety of different formats for the many different methods of use. There are Mining Transit Books, Transit field books, Level book, field book, Engineers field books and Cross section field books. Each type of book features a different grid to make it ideal for its intended use. They also come in a variety of different sizes including Pocket and King sized as well as one job field books. The pocket sized field book is small and portable and the one job field book is ideal for students who need a smaller field book for classes, regardless if they go to a high school, college, community college or university.
