In this Task I will explain the different equipment used in site surveying and with that I will produce a report based on our task we carried out where we transferred a level from a known benchmark to a temporary benchmark. (TBM) This will include photos and evidence in regards to what we did and how we recorded our results. Before we started our task we created a risk assessment which includes different risks and their solutions with their risk factor too, before and after. (The risk assessment

Land Surveying Introduction This project discusses the importance of land surveying and how it has changed over time. It takes a look at the Metes and Bounds system, the Congressional/Jeffersonian system, and offshore system. Each of these systems has changed over time and is still important to the development of land surveying. This project also discusses how data is used to create land-surveying maps and where to find data. This project analyzes the data that is used with land surveying and

One practice that constitutes professional land surveying is performing a professional service to physically locate a monument. Another service a land surveyor would provide is locating existing property lines or showing where those lines should be based on the original surveys done. A third service a land surveyor can practice is surveying a property’s subdivision with the intent of combing properties. Another service a land surveyor can perform is construction layout, by laying out positions or

1.0 INTRODUCTION:- What is drone survey? Drone surveying is the operation of finding contour, dimension, position or other particulars of the earths surface by using remote controlled aircraft. A drone is basically an unmanned aircraft. It is also called an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) or a flying robot. It can be remotely controlled or fly by itself through flight plans that are software-controlled. Such flight plans are in their embedded system that works with GPS. Drones are known to be used
