A Reflection on the San Diego County High Precision Geodetic Network<br />
and the Start of the Statewide HPGN Survey<br />
The San Diego County HPGN survey was one of the<br />
highlights in my career and a landmark survey for<br />
California. I hope that by reflecting on how change<br />
occurred 20 years ago, we will gain perspective and insight<br />
on how to manage the change occurring in our profession<br />
today.<br />
Author’s footnote: To give credit where it is due; the<br />
idea for a retrospective article came from a former co-worker<br />
of mine at the County of San Diego, Mike Binge, who<br />
writes a column for POB magazine. I spoke with Mike at the<br />
<strong>CLSA</strong>/NALS conference in March and he mentioned his<br />
idea for a column. As I dug out my old photos for Mike, I<br />
thought that a retrospective was a really good idea and suggested<br />
the idea to the California Surveyor.<br />
