Surveying From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search For other uses, see Surveyor (disambiguation) Surveyor at work with a leveling instrument Table of Surveying, 1728 Cyclopaedia Surveying is the technique and science of accurately determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional space position of points and the distances and angles between them. These points are usually, but not exclusively, associated with positions on the surface of the Earth , and are often used to establish land maps and boundaries for ownership or governmental purposes. In order to accomplish their objective, surveyors use elements of geometry engineering trigonometry mathematics ... physics , and law An alternative definition, per the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping (ACSM), is the science and art of making all essential measurements to determine the relative position of points and/or physical and cultural details above, on, or beneath the surface of the Earth, and to depict them in a usable form, or to establish the position of points and/or details. Furthermore, as alluded above, a particular type of surveying known as "land surveying" (also per ACSM) is the detailed study or inspection, as by gathering information through observations, measurements in the field, questionnaires, or research of legal instruments, and data analysis in the support of planning, designing, and establishing of property boundaries. It involves the re-establishment of cadastral surveys and land boundaries based on documents of record and historical evidence, as well as certifying surveys (as required by statute or local ordinance) of subdivision plats/maps, registered land surveys, juducial surveys, and space delineation. Land surveying can include associated services such as mapping and related data accumulation, construction layout surveys, precision measurements of length, angle, elevation, area, and volume, as well as horizontal and vertical control surveys, and the analysis and utilization of land survey data.

Nature of the Work About this section Back to Top Surveyors, cartographers, and photogrammetrists are responsible for measuring and mapping the Earth’s surface. Surveyors establish official land, airspace, and water boundaries. They write descriptions of land for deeds, leases, and other legal documents; define airspace for airports; and take measurements of construction and mineral sites. Other surveyors provide data about the shape, contour, location, elevation, or dimension of land or land features.

Contact US Surveying Engineering Degree Program Surveying is the science of measuring the physical features of the earth using specialized equipment and procedures to obtain highly accurate results. Surveyors perform boundary and engineering-related surveys to prepare maps, plots, and plans depicting topography. They also verify the location of existing or planned surface or sub-surface features in relation to the existing survey control. Using high-precision optical and electromechanical instruments and global positioning data from satellites, surveyors are responsible for interpreting the information and formulating conclusions.

8. Trigonometry-Surveying Uses We first set up a survey post directly across the river from some landmark (like a tree). Then we head downstream a distance that we can measure; http://catcode.com/trig/trig13.html

Index Surveying the Uses of Trigonometry Some people just do not know how to have fun. They think everything has to be useful. Luckily, the sine, cosine, and tangent functions do have a lot of real-world uses. Surveyors use the tangent function a lot. For example, they can use trigonometry to figure out the distance across rivers. The tangent of 31 degrees is about 0.60. That means that the distance across the river is 0.6 times 400 meters, or 240 meters. Real world alert! Index

Field Mapping To accurately record distances on the ground, surveyors typically utilize total stations, precise levels, GPS, EDMs, and steel tapes. Data Management Data management tools can be scaled to meet the your needs, from the individual to workgroups and large, multi-user, enterprises. Computation/Analysis Measurements must be adjusted to fit geometric conditions. To achieve this, surveyors analyze errors and redistribute them to an acceptable tolerance. Mapping/Visualization Measurements, survey points, and computations are all managed and stored in a GIS system. Raw survey data, COGO measurements, and field sketches can be entered directly into the GIS.
