(CESURVE) M01 Introduction To The Course PDF

Surveying is defined as determining the positions of points on or near the Earth's surface through measurements of distance, direction, and elevation. It involves measuring horizontal and vertical distances between objects and angles between lines to establish points. Surveying trains students to think logically, plan carefully, and arrange work accurately. Surveys are divided into plane and geodetic types, with control surveys establishing horizontal or vertical positions and topographic surveys determining ground configurations.
