expanded collection of IIMS Handy


Guides following the publication of “What a marine surveyor needs to know about using computers in marine surveying”


Nick Parkyn has authored a couple of handy guides for IIMS already, but in his newest book, he turns his thoughts back to his other area of expertise – computers and IT.


What a marine surveyor needs to know about using computers in marine surveying is the nineteenth handy guide to be published by the Institute over the past couple of years. Nick writes in a simple to understand style cutting through the jargon with ease.


Computers play a vital role in all aspects of marine surveying in today’s world and this handy guide sets out to explain the use of computers and computer software available to enable the marine surveyor in the operation of his/her business. There are many software packages to choose from and making the right selection that fits with your requirements as a surveyor is of key importance. Get it right and your computer will become an invaluable friend. And as Nick himself says, “The potential use of computers in marine surveying is limited only by your imagination”.


What a marine surveyor needs to know about using computers in marine surveying is an essential addition to the big ship or small craft surveyor’s library and is published in paperback at £18 + postage and packaging. It is also available as an eBook for £16.
