The office of the Surveyor General of the Federation (OSGOF) has held a conference of Zonal Directors and Chief Resident Surveyors, urging them to expect rapid changes in the way the sector operates.

The programme was themed: “The Future of Work: Adapting to Changes in the Geospatial Ecosystem and the Public Service” and  took place at SURCON chambers in Abuja, a statement by the Head, Information and Public Relations, Henry David, stated.

Surveyor General of the Federation (SGOF) Abuduganiy Adebomehin, in his welcome address, charged the surveyors to go for further studies in order for them to be able to take advantage of the advancement in technology.

”We are taking a detour from the way we used to do things before now. We have equipment now that predetermines our locations and our position. All that we are saying is that you use your job as a surveyor to impact humanity,” he advised.

Earlier, the Director (Infrastructure Surveys) in the Office of the Surveyor-General of the Federation (OSGOF), Onyekwere Nwogu in his opening remarks, said the office was doing everything to revamp the zonal headquarters  and field offices.
