Sure, there are computerized transits, and you don’t need to spend hours making computations to close a traverse, but there are still human beings out in the field doing surveys. So, the profession still exists and there is employment available, although perhaps not as many jobs. The same situation occurred in the drafting profession with the advent of CADD systems.
