Author(s): Alicia Valentino

Summary
Technology has made construction monitoring and shovel probing faster, easier, and more consistent. In this paper, I’m going to demonstrate how our office evolved from paper forms, to GPS recording, to tablets and phone apps to simplify most fieldwork. The change is not without its issues, but the result is faster, cheaper, and a whole lot better.
