When surveying using a "level" instrument , the "level" instrument is set-up and adjusted to level by adjusting the screws. When surveying you have an instrument person and a rod person. When trying to find the height of the instrument, the rod person places there rod over a "known" elevation, either a benchmark or a temporary benchmark that has a known elevation. To get the height of the instrument, you need to "shoot" the level to the rod person holding the rod on the known elevation, this is called the "Backsight". This elevation will be read by the instrument person, and recorded in the survey field book. This value backsight elevation will then be added to the known elevation of the benchmark or the temporary benchmark, to get the height of instrument. HI = known elevation + BS Height

General classifications of surveying include geodetic surveying, plane surveying, topographic surveying, cadastral surveying, construction surveying, and hydrographic surveying. Geodetic surveying deals with large-scale measurements of the earth's surface, while plane surveying focuses on small-scale measurements on a flat surface. Topographic surveying involves mapping of the land's natural features, cadastral surveying deals with land parcel boundaries, construction surveying is used for building projects, and hydrographic surveying is for mapping bodies of water and their features.

geomatics differ with surveying in that it encompasses a broad range of disciplines than surveying,let alone surveying is a discipline under geomatics
Land surveying is mapping out land for land development. Hydrographic surveying is mapping bodies of water. Engineering is a type of surveying that has to do with buildings roads and other man made things.

"Elementary Surveying" by Jun la Putt is a comprehensive introductory guide to surveying principles and techniques. It covers topics such as measurements, field survey methods, and the use of surveying equipment. The book is suitable for students, professionals, and anyone looking to learn the basics of surveying.
