Study Notes

Identification of Practical Surveying

Technical stages of detail surveying include: site investigation, field measurement, checking measurement and correction of errors, final calculations, and graphical representation.
The work related to the process is divided into Field Work and Office Work.

Field Work

Consists mainly of angle measurement, horizontal and vertical distance measurement, and sloped distance measurement using special instruments like theodolite, level, electronic distance measurement, compass, tape, and staff leveling.
Field measurement results provide data for office work calculations.

Office Work

Involves mathematical explanations for field measurement results to obtain final numerical results.
Involves drawing and simulation of measurement and calculation results in a graphical shape for simplicity and speed.
Special software can be used to aid office work.

Field Book and Field Sketch

Field notes are written records of the survey and should be systematically booked in a special notebook called the field book.
Notes should be recorded in the field book at the time the work is being done and should show when, where, for what purpose, under what physical conditions, and by whom the survey was made.
Notes and sketches should be made with sharp pencils.

Weekly Surveying Reports

Report cover should include folder and cover with information such as University of Halabja, Civil Engineering Department, Second Stage, Experiment Number, Experiment Name, Student Name, Student Group, and Experiment Date.
Report should include introduction, materials and equipment, procedure, calculations, discussion and conclusion, and data sheet sections.
Data sheet is for collecting all data collected in the field and should follow a typical template.
