  1. Introduction to Surveying RICS InstCES SST RICS considers surveying to be made up of seven specialisations General Practice Planning and Development Building Surveying Quantity Surveying Mineral Surveying Rural Practice Land Surveying

  2. Land Surveying This area of surveying can be broken down into the following : Geodetic Surveying Topographical Surveying Photogrammetry Hydrographic Surveying Engineering Surveying Cadastral Surveying We are going to concentrate on this last aspect although the basic techniques can be employed to most of the others.

  3. Engineering Surveying is used at the concept and design stage Production of maps or plans at the construction stage Setting out and measurement at the post construction stage Measurement and monitoring Surveying for all three aspects involves the measurement of three parameters : Horizontal Distances Vertical Distances Angles

  4. A variety of methods and equipment can be used to measure each of these parameters. Horizontal Distances by: Taping Optical Methods Electronic Methods Vertical Distances by Taping Optical Methods Electronic Methods Angles by: Magnetic Compass Sextant Theodolite Other presentations outline some of these methods.
