| 20100058599 | True elevation grade tape - A leveling rod on adhesive tape and a method of surveying are disclosed. A leveling rod on adhesive tape imprinted with a standardized increment of measure including metric, U.S. units, engineering scale or other increment of linear measure and imprint it in a fashion common to leveling rods on an adhesive tape or label preferably in a descending scale or other format for example ascending scale, or a scale defined as cut fill. TRUE ELEVATION GRADE TAPE could then be applied to any object of interest. After a few mathematical calculations to determine your instrument height you would place at that height, the corresponding gradient imprinted on the TRUE ELEVATION GRADE TAPE on the object of interest and when viewed with any telescopic instrument i.e. a builders level, you could determine the exact elevation of the object of interest. Or any change thereof. | 03-11-2010 |

| 20080250660 | Land surveying safety beacon - A Land Surveying Safety Beacon that is secured above an existing land surveying prism assembly. The Land Surveying Safety Beacon includes a cylinder fitted with bright LED lights powered by a rechargeable battery and controlled by a switch on the top end. The bottom end of the Land Surveying Safety Beacon is threaded for securement to a standard male connection above the existing land surveying prism assembly. The fitting on the bottom end of the Land Surveying Safety Beacon is particularly formed to facilitate completed face-to-face contact and avoid misalignment when attached to an existing land surveying prism. The above abstract is neither intended to define the invention of the application, which is measured by the claims, nor is it intended to be limiting as to the scope of the invention in any way. | 10-16-2008 |
