“Being educated in Ireland at the College of Technology in Dublin, I was familiar with the concepts of a multi-purpose cadastre. A few years after arriving in the US, I had the opportunity to work with one Professional Land Surveyor who was part of the Panel on a Multi-Purpose Cadastre, and meet several liaison members of the panel. The interaction with these professionals and my experience of undertaking research at cities and towns in Massachusetts reinforced the concepts I had learned while in College.” – Kevin Hanley, PLS, Dawood New England/Europe Business Development Manager
