Friedrich Suckow (born August 10, 1870 in Breslau , † December 8, 1937 in Berlin ) was a German geodesist , secret finance advisor and ministerial advisor in the Prussian Ministry of Finance and honorary professor of surveying at the Technical University of Berlin-Charlottenburg .

Life

Friedrich Suckow studied land surveying at the Agricultural University in Berlin , where in 1889 he joined the geodetic-cultural-technical association "kette "- the later RSC-Corps Saxonia-Berlin. In 1891 he passed the land knife exam and entered the Prussian land registry service in Potsdam .

From 1895 he headed the land registry office in Husum for 10 years . He was then appointed head of the remeasurement department in Minden . From 1911 to 1912 he was a department head in the Koblenz regional council and from 1913 to 1918 in the Frankfurt an der Oder regional council . In 1914 he was appointed to the tax council. Through his various activities in different places, he gained a wealth of experience in all land registry issues.

Suckow was an advocate of the classic Prussian cadastral administration, which was based on the far-reaching imperial court ruling of 1910 on the participation of the cadastre in the public belief of the land register and border recognition.

In 1918 he was appointed to the Prussian Ministry of Finance as a secret finance councilor and lecturer. He was later promoted to Ministerial Counselor. For more than 15 years Suckow has put all his energy into promoting the Prussian land registry administration of all branches of surveying. In 1933 he resigned from the ministry, officially because of hearing damage, but actually because he did not want to cooperate with the new rulers.

Since 1923 Friedrich Suckow gave lectures on the history of surveying at the Agricultural University Berlin and from 1927 at the Technical University Berlin-Charlottenburg. He played a key role in relocating the geodesy studies from the agricultural to the technical university and thus created the essential foundations for the extended academic training. In 1932 the Technical University of Berlin-Charlottenburg appointed him honorary professor. Suckow worked on the advisory board for surveying from its establishment in 1922 until its dissolution in 1935, primarily as chairman in Committee V for organizational and training issues.
