There's adjacent work for any utility, but the type I was doing was cable/fiber.

The crux of the concept is receiving a map, sometimes partially completed, sometimes with partially incorrect information, and using easily placed symbols to make corrections for submission.

Whatever % of that you feel comfortable doing in the field, you do, with the remainder being finished wherever (often in front of a TV show, from what I saw).

A slightly more complicated (and nonpublic) version of contributing to OpenStreetMaps.

This is interesting and I will be keeping it in mind. I'm not actively seeking a career change, but the idea of solo outdoor survey-esque work potentially involving cycling is definitely appealing to me and I'm not wedded to what I do. Thanks for giving me something to ponder! If you want to get in touch or give me any info that's not prudent to put in public, here's an address that forwards to my personal one: [e-mail]
