Institute of Cadastral Surveying Chris Hoogsteden Memorial Prize
For many years the ICS has offered an annual Prize to students taking the final year Surveying 457 – Cadastral Surveying 3 paper at the University of Otago School of Surveying. Since 2018 this prize has been the Institute of Cadastral Surveying Chris Hoogsteden Memorial Prize, in memory of Associate Professor (Dr.) Chris Hoogsteden (1946-2014).
This memorial recognises his membership of the ICS and particularly his contributions to cadastral surveying courses as well as his support of students throughout his tenure at the University of Otago School of Surveying from 1983. The inclusion of Chris’ name within the ICS Prize has been endorsed by his family.
The prize now consists of a $300.00 cash payment, plus a package including five years free ICS membership and the Cadastral Index Tool/Application including a three year license (valued at over $2,000).
