In leveling across a deep and wide river, reciprocal level readings were taken between two points, X and Y, as follows: a. With instrument set up near X, the rod readings on X are 1.283 and 1.285m; on the distant point Y, the rod read- ings are 2.618, 2.619, 2.621, and 2.622m. b. With the instrument set up near Y, the rod readings on Y are 3.478 and 3.476m; on the distant point X, the rod readings are 2.143, 2.140, 2.146, and 2.144m. Determine the true difference in elevation between the two points. Determine the elevation of Y if the known elevation of X is 290.082m.

A level line from P to Q is carried out to and fro direct leveling, and the height difference of the forward measurement is 12.380 meters, and the height difference of the back measurement is 12.411 meters. It is also known that the closed difference limit value of the previous test and the back test K is 20 mm (K is the number of kilometers), the forward measuring level is 4.2 kilometers long, and the back measuring level is 3.5 kilometers long. Try to find the average elevation difference from P to Q, and whether the round-trip test results meet the regulations, and please explain your answer.
1. A tachometric surveying was conducted to obtain some readings for inaccessible points, where it was found that the multiplying and additive constants are 98 and 0.1, respectively. The instrument was setup at point C and the readings listed in the table were taken while the staff was held vertically. Calculate the horizontal distance between BM and station D. Also, calculate the reduced level of station D. Figure 1 shows a schematic view of the site. 2. Describe a practical procedure to measure the height of your house using tachometric surveying, list the procedure in bullet points.
