● Assisted locating center positioning of pipes in foundations.(1/32”)
● Far exceeded my peers in production many times in the field.
● Located utilities, benchmarks, and monuments.
Refreshed trigonometry calculations; finding the slope for pipe; angle and distance.
Used Trimble S6 Robotic Total Station with TSC3 Controller.
Used robotic instrument for staking/locating foundations for pipe rack.
Ran level loops checking/finding error other Instrument Men had done.
Assisted teaching “green” rodmen how to accurately/precisely set up back sight/foreward sight and other duties of a rodman.

● Learned trigonometry calculations; finding slope of a pipe; angle and distance.
Maximum Surveys Inc. Tulsa, OK Pack Help – January 2012 to March 2012
● Assisting the pack runner who is responsible for 2 and 3 dimensionally show topographic maps using Base Station GPS systems.
● Efficiently followed lines based on azimuth and true north. Set shots for receiver and shot points and accurately set offsets when access was impossible within the designated radius buffer.
● Manned the machete day in and day out many long cold/hot days. The woods do not scare me.

● Managed boundary surveys, regularly drew up sketches of jobs for title surveys. RESUME OF Sean Wayne Murray (CONT’D) PAGE 2 OF 3
● Full comprehension of GPS systems and where the best places are to set control. I can also assume control and traverse to an area where existing GPS coordinates on a surface or ground system, can be used to alter the assumed control to fit the system required.
● Staked many construction sites for everything from parking lots, to sports arenas, to restaurants. Very capable of recognizing and correcting mistakes if found in construction staking projects.
● Set control and calibrations with levels ran through them, to ensure that all control on large scale projects would be usable universally though out jobs for construction crews and our crews alike for future use on or off of the site
● Surveyed many easements and pipelines.
● Knowledge of assuming control; setting control with no coordinate system efficiently .
● Far exceeded my peers in production many times in the field.
● Scribed “X's” and “Y's” while as Party Chief.
● Sketched buildings, city sewer lines for title surveys and pipeline surveys.
● Groomed to talk to property owners with respect and always in a professional manner.
● Used a 3 tripod/scanner system with the backsight and foresight being mirrors sitting on tribracs themselves.
Spooner & Associates, Euless, TX Instrument Man – August 2010 to March 2011
● Responsible for making sure that all equipment was in the truck in the morning and all the equipment was put up in its respective place, and what needed to be charged was charged at the end of the day.
