Occupation: Lantmätaren?

[John Anderson]

What does Lantmätaren translate to in the English language?  Trying to break it up using the on-line Svenske-English dictionary, the closest I could come was Country Meter which does not sound right.
 
Thank you all for your valuable knowledge!

John,
 
I think it translates to Land Surveyor.
 
Happy New Year

Thanks Bo!
