Working in the dark and wet

While most of us are probably out of the weather in our work, there are sectors like the construction industry which don't have that luxury, writes Brian Byrne.

And that includes the various ancillary professions involved in the industry, including surveyors.

But the work must go on. And though it's a very technical story, this account by local surveyor Mark Phelan of MP Geomatics is an indication of how high tech can make surveying more accurate and a tad easier.

But he still has to work in the wet, and at this time of the year, often in the dark. (Pics: MP Geomatics.)
