Determine longitudes and latitudes of important features and boundaries in survey areas, using theodolites, transits, levels, and satellite-based global positioning systems (GPS).
Task automation exposure
Very low exposure
Exposure basis
[v4/median] score 5 (raw 5 | A 5 / B 5 / C 5 | modality: physical_primary) While satellite-based positioning (GNSS) is highly automated and precise, the task explicitly includes the use of theodolites, transits, and levels, which require physical presence, manual setup, line-of-sight management, and tactile operation in the field that current robotics c (capable: None - human-led)

How much of this task's output current AI can produce or substantially assist.
Best current model strength on any capability this task requires.
This is an assessment of technical feasibility plus published evidence - not a forecast. Even fully automatable tasks are often not automated, because of cost, verification, liability, regulation or the fact that the task is bundled with other work.
Occupations
Occupations that perform this task (1)
Importance is the O*NET-style weight of this task within each occupation. The same task can be highly exposed but peripheral to one job and core to another.
| Occupation | Industry | Importance | Role | Occupation AI exposure |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Surveyors | Cross-industry | 4.2/5 | core | 8 |
Evidence
Evidence (0)
No evidence item is mapped to this specific task yet. The exposure figure above rests on the v1 editorial baseline and on the capability assessment, and should be treated as low-confidence. Pages with fewer than 0 evidence items are excluded from sitemaps.
