What is the difference between geodetic surveying and plane surveying?

Plain surveying means the survey in which earth surface is considered as to be flat or plain i.e. its curvature is ignored. Geodetic survey is the survey in which curvature of the earth is taken into count and then surveying is done.


What is the principle of compass surveying?

The prismatic compass is a type of compass use for survering a land.


What is plane surveying?

There are two general types of land surveying: plane and geodetic. Plane surveying considers the earth to be a flat surface--a plane, which works well for jobs spanning a short distance (a few miles), because calculations are relatively simple. Surveys of this nature account for much of survey work being done. Geodetic surveying takes into account the true shape of the earth. These surveys are usually of a very large scale and most often performed by government agencies. GPS is capable of automatically giving geodetic positions (within certain qualifiers), though a thorough understanding of the principals of geodesy is necessary to adequately design and conduct a geodetic survey.


Why we need surveying?

Surveying is the back bone of construction projects, we must need surveying before starting a construction project, during execution of construction activities and after completion of project. Before starting project surveying help us in design and calculation of quantities. During execution of construction activities surveying is most important thing, It help us to maintain the exact locations and heights. After completion of project surveying is called topographic surveying and it helps us to prepare the As-Built drawings, to make comparison between design and actual constructed structures, to check the differences.

What is the function of clamp screw in plane table surveying?

The clamp screw in plane table surveying is used to secure the alidade or sighting equipment in place on the plane table. It helps keep the equipment stable and prevents it from moving while taking measurements or making sightings. This ensures accuracy and precision in the surveying process.

What are the classes of surveying?

The main classes of surveying are geodetic surveying, topographic surveying, cadastral surveying, construction surveying, and hydrographic surveying. Geodetic surveying deals with large areas and high accuracy measurements for mapping the Earth's surface. Topographic surveying focuses on determining the natural and man-made features of a specific area. Cadastral surveying involves demarcating property boundaries. Construction surveying is done to guide the construction of infrastructure and buildings, while hydrographic surveying is used to map underwater features.


What are general classifications of surveying?

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.
