Rationale:

The advancement of survey in the field of Agriculture in global positioning system, mapping in geographical information system and remote sensing techniques have grown to several folds. The incorporation of latest technology provides a basic foundation for the prosperity of Agricultural Technology students to become a land surveyor, proficient in handling advanced surveying instruments

Objectives:

• On completion of this module, the student should be able to:
• Understand the basic principles and scope of surveying
• Know how to use chains and tapes in taking linear measurements.
• Know the basics of leveling using dumpy level to deduce levels of points.
• Know the principal of measurement of angles using prismatic compass.
• Know the principles of measurement of angles and bearings using vernier theodolite, and optical theodolite by trigonometrical leveling.
• Know the basics of Tacheometry and contouring.
• Know the basics of Total Station to measure angles, distances and altitudes.
• Know the basics of Global positioning system and how to locate the station with latitude and longitude observations.
• Know the basics of the Geographical information system and how to plot the map using the primary principles of mapping software.

Unit II

Levelling

1. Introduction: Definitions- Levelling instruments, different types of levels and staves; Datum level -bench marks, types-Temporary adjustments-Line of collimation, Axis of telescope, Foresight, Back sight, Intermediate sight, Height of collimation, change point.
2. Methods of Reduction of levels: Methods of Reduction of levels- problems in reduction of levels by Height of collimation and rise and fall method with a minimum of two or three change points-Arithmetical check.
3. Methods of levelling: Methods of levelling – simple levelling, compound levelling, check levelling, Inverted levelling – Profile levelling – Longitudinal sectioning and cross sectioning-plotting the profile.

Unit III

Angular Measurements

1. Compass surveying- The prismatic Compass: Component parts and their use; Reference meridians-magnetic and true meridian; Dip and declination; Whole circle and quadrantal bearing-Fore and back bearing – closed and open traverseDetermination of included angles- Closing error- Problem – Local attraction and its elimination; ( Theory only )
2. Theodolite surveying: Theodolite, types-transit and nontransit-component parts of a vernier theodolite-Fundamental lines; Temporary adjustments- Measurement of horizontal angles.
3. Trigonometrical leveling- heights and distances-Measurement of vertical angle to determine the height and reduced level of a building, when its base is accessible and when inaccessible-simple problems.

Unit V

Modern Surveying

1. Global positioning system (GPS)-components of GPS receivers- applications/ uses- procedure for the Location of a point with its latitude and longitude – tracking a point- routing.
2. Geographical information system (GIS)-Components of GIS-Comparison of Ordinary mapping and with GIS software- fields of applications.
3. Total station-features- advantages -field procedure- to measure horizontal distances and altitudes – to measure horizontal angle and vertical angle- to fix co-ordinates.
