Set out contours by direct methods
-Determine heights on a level grid and interpolate contours from the results
-Observe levels to determine a combined long and cross section traverse
-Set out a rectilinear figure (eg. house pad) from offsets from cadastral
boundaries using theodolite and steel band
-Set out precise horizontal angles
-Determine the area of an irregular figure using coordinate method
-Determine heights on level grid and hence determine volume
-Determine the area of a x-section using defined surface gradients
-Determine long and cross section levels (eg. for roads) and hence compute
cut/fill volumes
-Set out small radius curves using offsets
-Set out a horizontal curve by radiation and check using offsets
-Use a theodolite and EDM to determine position and height for a detail "pick
up" survey
-Clearly and unambiguously record all observations in a suitable field book
using industry standard methods.
